proper use of braces in Python (was: Prothon Prototypes vs Python Classes)

No way, that wastes an entire line of code with a single brace!

int main ( void ) {
    if ( true ) {
        return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}

This is clearly better. Compact yet easy to read. I try formatting my 
Python code exactly like this and it always complains about my braces.. 
clearly wrong.
