Notset: A Do-Not-Care value for Python
Personally I would use "assigned" 1) to better reflect the meaning and 2) to follow PEP-8 and not use an uppercase.

Uppercase was chosen to match Python's existing singletons, `True`, `False`, and `None`. Lowercase might look a little too much like a variable, and all-upper might look too much like a module-level const, IMHO.
