I found this thread when searching for the same message, but my solution
was entirely different. It turned out that I was trying to update a client
to use a slightly modified proto file, and I was making a call that was
assigning to a field that no longer existed. But the error message here (
TypeError:
Message must be initialized with a dict) is completely misleading -- the
real message should have been "unknown argument" or "unknown field" or
something ....
