Should this affect the score?

I deleted these lines to see if it would affect the score, and it did by 45 points. Is it allowed to delete these lines?

if __name__ == '__main__':
    assert fibgolf('fibonacci', 10) == 55
    assert fibgolf('tribonacci', 10) == 149
    assert fibgolf('lucas', 10) == 123
    assert fibgolf('jacobsthal', 10) == 341
    assert fibgolf('pell', 10) == 2378
    assert fibgolf('perrin', 10) == 17
    assert fibgolf('padovan', 10) == 9
