I saw the argument that the source code is the preferred base to make changes and modifications in software, but in the case of those large models, the weights themselves are the preferred way.

It's much easier and cheap to make a finetune or LoRA than to train from scratch to adapt it to your use case. So it's not quite like source vs binary in software.
