You think an archive doesn't contain compiled binaries simply because it contains more than one file?

I think compilation to a single binary is not a big advantage when distributing to others. I think that because I've rarely seen anyone distribute software that way. If it's a widespread practice in some circles, I'd like to know more about the circumstances.
but at that point who cares if it's compiled or not?
