False positive on new Python rule S5806: display is not a built-in

Clean Code Report False-positive / False-negative...

We are using SonarCloud and we have this code line that is now flagged as using a built-in:
display = bool(not args[’-q’])

The triggered rule is the new python:S5806 released on June 16. We double checked the python docs and even in the REPL we did not find anything about display being reserved in Python.
