The actual result seems reasonable to me?

It seems that you disagree with python.el's definition of "statement" and
"block". Eg the block definition seems to be:

(defconst python-rx-constituents
  `((block-start          . ,(rx symbol-start
                                 (or "def" "class" "if" "elif" "else" "try"
                                     "except" "finally" "for" "while" "with"
                                     ;; Python 3.5+ PEP492
                                     (and "async" (+ space)
                                          (or "def" "for" "with")))
                                 symbol-end))
