If Tor isn't effectively anonymising connections, then he's screwed whether he downloads it from somebody elses IP, or his own...

Download from somebody elses IP = Probably not at all associated with himself.

Download from his own IP = Definitely associated with himself.

Again. What would be the advantage of doing this? There isn't one...

The post you've originally replied to said "watch the CP go by". Someone else would fetch it over his exit node, giving him an alibi, and he would just keep a local copy as it passed through.
