> Because a source release could not contain compiled code
Again, I don't see this stated explicitly. Perhaps the guidance should be
clarified if this is the intention?

Because a source release could not contain compiled code (category A or
otherwise), if it does then it not open source. See for instance [1]. This is
why tools like Apache Rat look for certain types of binary files in release
artefacts.
This has also come up before a number of times e.g. including the gradle
jar in a source release e.g [2]
Thanks,
Justin
