I think this should be removed or changed to something more obvious like "Unknown". Because it's capitalized I thought "NOASSERTION" might be something about not asserting some copyrights or something and googling "noassertion license" didn't produce immediately obvious results.

You're right, it's a term that only people very involved in open source licensing details would recognize, apologies for missing that (because I have been one of those people at times).

We'll change the display in the chart or at least add on-page documentation shortly. 💭

Added an explanation to the datasheet. @khxu will make a corresponding update to the website to close this out. Thanks again for reporting @verhovsky!
