You're totally right, the basis set reduction does not actually reduce the basis in this particular case and with these values of ewind and epsproj (but basis reduction is not much effective in this kind of systems).
I think it's not safe to reduce ewind below 3.0, since it could lead to wrong complex band dispersions. I would suggest to try and encreasing eps_proj up to 1.d-5, which could help in reducing the basis set (however convergency with respect to these two parameters should be always checked, if not using the full basis).
