I'm with you on the former, but the packaging guidelines? You can't
package pre-built binaries in Fedora. Why should the packaging
guidelines mention them at all, aside from stating that you can't
package them?

I think the message here should be: If a code project is available under
a Free Software license, you can make pre-built binaries available on
fedorahosted.org as long as the source code used to build those binaries
is also made available and that the source code and the prebuilt
binaries are not distributed in the same tarball (or, at a minimum, that
a "source only" tarball is available).
