I would think that well-written import statements would cut down on the file size.  Just import the objects you need, rather than the whole namespace.  PyQt is even organized in sub-modules, apparently to encourage you to refrain from importing everything.

If there are submodules that you aren't importing, then it's possible
they don't need to be included. But if you just import a few names
from a module, you still need the entire module to be included.
