Well there surely is according to the guide you mentionend....and it e.g. says..

Page Builders that generate bloated HTML Page builders like Elementor or WP bakery often create bloated code that has a large number of DOM nodes. There is no easy fix for this. PageBuilders are often a part of the workflow. The solution includes cleaning up your bloated code an changing your workflow.
Bad (template) coding.When a large DOM size is created by your editor or caused your your template things could get ugly. This means that bloated code is part of your website's core. You will need to switch editors, rewrite parts of your template or even start from scratch.

This is why I was asking initially if there´s some advice you guys might have here regarding your experience with Elementor and penci. :)

Hi,

There is no way to fix the DOM size issue, almost websites in the world contain this issue. You should read the document detail here: https://www.corewebvitals.io/pagespeed/fix-avoid-excessive-dom-size-lighthouse

Hi again,

currently my DOM-Size for the Mainpage is exceeding 1600 DOM nodes. Ususally elementor and penci are not known to have an issue with excessive DOM size. Any idea how to fix that, please? Maybe some settings are not done properly from my side?
