Well, I don't think a full discussion of the subtlety about a module appearing under multiple names belongs in the tutorial, but I think the sentence could be amended to say "Statements in a module are executed only the *first* time the module name is encountered in an import statement".

The other is indeed a bug (IMO the sentence is missing the word 'definition', as in 'execution of a function definition').
