If you want to distribute a single-file optimized version, perhaps
embedding the Python code as a here-file in a shell script would work
for you.  For example:

#!/bin/sh
exec python -O <<EOF

assert False

EOF


For anything larger, I second the advice elsewhere in this thread:
build pyo files and distribute them.
