I agree. You probably don't want these boxes doing more than a simple
default route. For that, rip1 or static+HSRP are fine. Let routers route.

There are three problem even if above case is in use.
1 Cache appliance receives icmp redirect, if the gateway is
  not suitable to go. And the disaster happens, when the
  redirected router is down.
2 We see the same packet twice, if the packet redirected.
  This may lead higher cpu usage for the router.
