The terminology is different at this level. Asserted means the lines are set to whichever voltage is logically 1.

To me, "asserted" implies a control signal whose semantics aren't numeric. That is, it's describing a true/false or on/off state ("is this condition present?") rather than a binary digit. For an address or data bus I think it's fine to just use "1".
