The class/function distinction is not so clear in Python from the user's point of view since there is no different calling syntax.
There is a visible distinction, though -- you can subclass classes but not functions.
If these are uppercased because they wrap classes, why not just expose the class directly? Or if that's an implementation detail, it shouldn't affect the casing of the name.
