Did you install PyQt5 separately from QGIS?  It's included in the QGIS app, but 
if you append QGIS to the python path python will not see the QGIS PyQt5.

Try an insert instead:

sys.path.insert(0,'/Applications/QGIS3.app/Contents/Resources/python/')
sys.path.insert(0,'/Applications/QGIS3.app/Contents/Resources/python/plugins')

"Mon Dieu! but they are all alike.  Cheating, murdering, lying, fighting, and 
all for things that the beasts of the jungle would not deign to possess - money 
to purchase the effeminate pleasures of weaklings.  And yet withal bound down 
by silly customs that make them slaves to their unhappy lot while firm in the 
belief that they be the lords of creation enjoying the only real pleasures of 
existence....
