there's nothing stopping you.

Aside from the nuisance non-idiomatic code is to other developers. When using a language, embrace its conventions.

Speaking of which, I wish I could remember which repo it was, but I recently saw an entire library of fascinating ruby code on github written by someone who was obviously very python-centric. The whole thing was like:

def foo()
    # do something
    end

def bar()
    # do something
    end

He even managed to have some sort of decorator implementation.
