I think wrapping all your code in OOP boilerplate is probably too much for an intro course. One of the nice things about Python is that hello world is `print("Hello world")`. No `public static void main(String[] args)`, no nothing. And then on top of that, you can add your functions and classes and whatnot, but it's easier to wrap your head around a zero-fluff entry point.

print "Hello world" - python 2 was/is even nicer in that regard.
