I would argue that all software patents should include complete source code and build details necessary to compile a working version.
Something like MP3 or h265 represent nontrivial investments in information theory, and I'm basically okay with patents granting a (temporary) exclusive licensing period in exchange for sharing the practical code and theoretical work.
Patenting something like "one click ordering" or "facilitating inter-personal communication by sending audio over the internet" is just ridiculous.
