I would not accept that.
An even better way to write a stub function is to write a docstring:
def frobnicate():
""" Frobnicate the spangule. """
A docstring, like any bare expression, is also a valid statement.
Writing a docstring can be done immediately, because if you're writing a
stub function you at least know the external interface of that function.
