>>ps i have also noticed keepers with screen tops place a bathtowel, or paper towel, and for what puprpose exactly does this serve
if a snake's rubbing its nose on the screen top, because it can see thru the screen and it appears to be a way "out", then covering that with a towel can block the visual temptation & (with luck) stop the snake from rubbing its nose. it can retain humidity as noted; it can retain heat; it can block light, for whatever reason. just a mechanical barrier. it can also block air circulation fo course--NOT to a degree that would reduce O2, but fresh air circulation is always a nice thing, dissipate odors, etc.
