"...the module is always fully imported ... the only difference ... is what name is bound..."

...so "namespacing" and (trivially noted) whether the imported item ends up in your default help documentation.

It is almost universally agreed that "from ... import *" is a bad idea because it's hard to determine what's in use.

Up to you, but it kind of depends on how much of the module you are going to use. Importing the whole math module just to use math.sqrt could be quite unnecessary, and waste precious memory space. So, really up to you, and what you want to do. 😉
