Why would you ever want to add a second broken hash like MD5 instead of just using a single secure function like SHA2, SHA3, or BLAKE2?

Only for the case like I mentioned (SourceForge example above) of verifying payloads that only ship with those two broken hashes. Not advocating for publishing new work like this.
