RFP if link goes down

This question came to mind while doing a scenario.

Suppose we are configuring multicast and it is allowed to configure static multicast route to solve RPF problem on the real lab.
The RPF to a source should be set with static multicast route.
The RPf to the RP is already ok because IGP.

Should we concern to use static multicast to the RP, even if it is already solved by IGP, because the task states to use static multicast and there is redundant links that my change the RPF path when a link goes down?
(considering that it is not mentioned on the tasks)

I never asked that to the Proctor.
