How about global main as a boolean?
name == 'main' as a mark of entrypoint module is coherent and logical, but awkward to type and requires explicit explaination for newcomers even with prior background in other langauges. So instead of: if name == 'main': ... you would have: if main: ... ?

if main: sys.exit(main())
