Personally, I prefer to wrap the entire logic inside a main() function as a standard boilerplate while creating a runnable module. It looks more neat and readable
I agree that it is more neat, but more than that:
For example, this foo function will work only if it the file is executed directly, but not if it is imported (bad, confusing and inconsistent):
foo
def foo(): for i in range(N): yield i if __name__ == '__main__': N = 5
