## Special Scenarios
Due to a conflict between lnd's `UpdateChannelPolicy` gRPC endpoint and the python reserved word list, the follow syntax is required in order to use `PolicyUpdateRequest` with the `global` variable.
Here is an example of a working format that allows for use of a reserved word `global` in this scenario.
```
args = {'global': True, 'base_fee_msat': 1000, 'fee_rate': 0.000001, 'time_lock_delta': 40}
stub.UpdateChannelPolicy(ln.PolicyUpdateRequest(**args))
