Are there any modern tools which deploy a Python application as a collection of .pyc files without source? Not as a way to obfuscate anything, but just as a disk-space saving measure? I am messing around with a prototype and finding that `.pyc` files still directly import just fine… but only if I manually move them out of the __pycache__ directory and rename them to remove the python version tag from their names, which doesn't seem like the way I'm intended to leverage this feature
