The main reason why Stallman has even made distributing the source code a requirement is because reverse-engineering software is a fucking nightmare and a specialty of a few professionals. Most people can't really audit this mess, like, at all. Even C and assembly language are piss-hard to audit and debug. So no, the source code doesn't really matter if we can just disassemble the entire program with a press of a button. But we can't really do it.
