But Paul Graham says that the guy from Replit whom he funded told him the source code is "object code" now, so we don't need to look at it all ? It must be utter wisdom since PG managed to get wealthy by selling some website during dotcom-mania so he must have insights we are missing?

I don't remember how much he made selling the "quickly-killed startup bought by now failed internet giant".

But I'm fairly sure how much money he made building something other people used is peanuts compared to what he made investing early in companies where others built things, instead of him.
