It's not about the preferred way. Else open source software would need to give you their IDE setup, CI/CD setup, access to all internal tools, etc. Software like sqlite don't release their full test suite. They paywall the preferred way of making changes, yet they are open source.
>The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications
The GPL refers to a form of the artifact being released

If you can't modify it like a core contributor would, then it's not really open source. Traditional open source projects always included development guides, test configurations etc. > Software like sqlite don't release their full test suite. They paywall the preferred way of making changes, yet they are open source. That's a matter of opinion. IMO sqlite is not true open source, for precisely this reason.
