The function signature for the `send` RPC is:
```
send [{"address":amount,...},{"data":"hex"},...] ( conf_target "estimate_mode" fee_rate options version )
```
The last example in the manpage is missing the `fee_rate` arg, but is trying to specify the `options` arg, by index.
The parser confuses the intended `options` arg as the missing `fee_rate` arg.
See:
```
$ bitcoin-cli -rpcuser=doggman -rpcpassword=donkey -rpcport=18554 -regtest send '{"bcrt1qusm48zmlzwr32csxdw4ar7atw260h22c9ten9l": 0.1}' 1 economical '{"add_to_wallet": false, "inputs": [{"txid":"0b7e1a471dc948b7a6187936b16e6d7d9833629b2f9dd8a392eb89928f63aaad", "vout":0}]}'
error code: -8
error message:

tACK 50cf683 I have replicated the described behaviour in v.30.2 Using the exact syntax from the last manpage example fails: Works with adding 'null' as a placeholder for the fee_rate argument: |
