Instead of filling empty values with a string: "None" we just leave them empty and operate on the values in the columns that have values.
I think this was likely added so that empty values would show up in kepler, as None rather than disappearing completely. We don't use kepler much anymore, since it's not maintained anymore, and leaving the values empty is more true to the original geodataframe.
