Can you name one context where StringPrep would be considered part of
IDNA2003?

The only place appears to be the definition of the term IDNA2003 in the
rationale document, and it seems several people (including the author of
that text) appear to believe something else than what's in the document.

RFC 3490 have a normative reference to RFC 1034 as well, but I wouldn't
consider RFC 1034 part of IDNA2003.

Agreed.
