This addition to Python, specifically the bare assignment-free `red` syntax would be a huge mistake for the language. It looks like a syntax error to me, and completely destroys my mental model for how Python code either does work or should work. 

A simple assignment to `None`, `()`, or imported static `AUTO_ENUM` (or similar, akin to subprocess.PIPE) would be *much* preferred.
