Subject: [gentoo-catalyst] why are pyo files checked into git?

I'm just wondering why (slightly, and maybe determinatally) optimized versions 
of the python modules are checked into git and distributed with it?

I'm asking becasue there are a couple of problems with pyo files (vs pyc), 
namely they strip assert statements. The second concern is that the only 
benefit is that they will make a first run slightly faster, after that the 
user should be able to generate them themselves, and being binary git won't 
handle them well.
