Of course! I was sure there is a good reason... Well really it's not only stripping. It's all the things that target-finalize is doing: stripping of course, but also removing .h files, .a files, documentation, unneeded locales, and more. Therefore, my approach was more to really only at the files that are in output/target/ (and their size) at the end of the build and then try to match the packages they are coming from.
