I know of installations with >60 nodes which had no problems with a
single install server. KISS! Keep it simple and stupid. So if you do
not have problems, don't make it more difficult than it needs to be!

It will make things complicated!
If the network load is a problem (full load on the servers network is
not a problem, it's a perfect configuration of your network!) start
using multiple Debian mirrors. These are easy to keep in sync and most
of the network load is getting packages from the Debian mirror to the
install clients.
But anyway. KISS!
