Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:
A few years ago, there was a particular case in which compile failed without a trailing newline. We fixed it so that it would work anyway.
Unless we are willing for a conforming Python interpreter to fail
>>> exec('print("hello")')
hello
The Reference Manual should be clear that EOF and EOS (end-of-string) is treated as NEWLINE.
