Call it Paranoia if you will. if I were to download  HTTPD  source to play about  with.
under the heading
Apache HTTP Server 2.4.46(httpd) :2.4. is the latest available version 2020-08-07
on page https://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache24
httpd-2.4.46 .tar.bz2
 
Is it likely that I will find complete build files in the zip file
needing only to run  the "run of the mill commands"
 
./configure
 make
make install,
 
Or is there some other intention in providing this source zip file for another audience ?

"Ubuntu Server" is a distribution of the operating system and all its
constituent packages.
I think it would be confusing to refer to their build of HTTPD and
proprietary tools this way.

Their added tools are a regular source of confusion because people on
other platforms/distributions read Ubuntu-oriented tutorials/blogs
that aren't self-aware enough to call out the proprietary parts.
But the tools are largely on the periphery.
