You are changing the terms of the problem at each messages, it does not make for a constructive discussion. I am sure that you can come up with enough far-fetched conditions to build a situation where MD5 would be the best choice, but this is not relevant for real world situations. For real world situations, to protect against hostile tampering MD5 is broken, and to protect against accidental tampering, faster hashes exist.
