So in my mind, if I had the choice, it is a decision between a sigil

might be better.
NOT_FOUND = 404
match var:
case 200:
print("OK")
case (NOT_FOUND):
print("Not Found")
case other_code:
print("Other code", other_code )
Don't () already indicate an expression to be evaluated?
It's only one character longer than the early . suggestion, and already
has the desired meaning of "calculated value" not "bound variable".
