Why there is no main() function ?

It might be an idea to look at main.cpp in the Arduino core library files:

#include <Arduino.h>

int main(void)
{
    init();

#if defined(USBCON)
    USBDevice.attach();
#endif
    
    setup();
    
    for (;;) {
        loop();
        if (serialEventRun) serialEventRun();
    }
        
    return 0;
}
