Put the function call into the event attached to the button (in the same manner as you would have to open a window). You can force progress through the GUI by enabling and disabling elements as you move between steps.

The value of these practices and guidelines comes when it becomes clear that other people might end up working on the code you're producing. You can only do so much, but if a script or module ignores established practices it's that much harder to adjust in the future.
For me the rule is simple, I can name things as a please when I'm tapping away for my own purposes, but anything I produce for other people must adhere to a reasonable set of styling rules.
This is a bit of a development rabbit hole, but if you spend a lot of your day writing code you are a developer.
