  No, androiddeployqt does that on its own. So overall the apk still has exactly the same content, just the way to access it changed. It is possible apps make assumption about this, some of the frameworks definitely do.

  It's avoiding duplicating the assets again in the file system, thus needing less space and significantly speeding up the first start. So while technically going in the right direction I would certainly have preferred to have this as something opt-in to not break all existing non-trivial code out there...
