I beleive src is something from the past. Today with command completion and a lot of disc space source is better. I know til is not compliant with some styles.

Maybe someone like to extend your project later on. Or reuse parts of it (core library or utility)

I use emacs and makefiles makes it easy for me to just M-x compile and then make / make build / make clean / make setup. Maybe there is a better way with gprbuild. I make the makefiles as simple as possible. I am not able to read complex makefiles anyway (as most others I believe)
