99% of the time the content of <<<block of code>>> is just "main()",
so then you're proposing replacing this:

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

with this:

@main
def myFunction():
    my_main()

Which feels redundant to me. Why have a function here that does
nothing but call another function?

I think if this is the goal then a simple predicate would be clearer:

if is_main_module():
    main()
