This is a side-effect of writing code that relies on global variables.
Global variables are generally a bad idea. Global constants are fine.
Nope, the variables don't have to be global to have this problem, they
just have to be shared:
>>> a = 3
>>> b = lambda x: x + a
This is a pointless replacement for 'def b(x): return x+a'
>>> print b(3)
6
>>> a = 4
>>> print b(3)

Passing any lambda
Python does not have lambda objects. It has lambda expressions that
produce function objects identical except for .__name__ to the
equivalent def statement output.
