A short answer would be yes, you can do it and it gives a lt of
possibilities,
but if you are talking abou a script in the context of a bunch of commands
being executed one after another, you should realize that with calling the API
you may run into undo/redo issues.
I have done it in production but only to do really opportunistic stuff,
like copying mesh data around without creating tweaks etc.
and where creating a scripted or not plug-in would have caused
too much overhead.
But I really like this combo of API and Python and can only
encouraged to go down
the path of Dark Magic Power Moves as I call it ; )

More precisely, if there is a boundary between python scripting and
API calls, how is it formalized ?

This is a very basic question:
Is it possible to make API calls from the command line, or should they
in general be considered apart from python scripts ? Aren't both of
the same nature ?
This might sound odd but that's one of the conceptual point I'm
missing personally.
