Why did the wallet not change without global?
Short answer. Storing inside made a new local wallet.
Do you need global to read a global variable?
No. Only to change it.
Remember
| global: change the outer name |
| Not needed just to read it |
The function spends, but the wallet stays full. Why? Without global, storing inside makes a new local wallet. Global wallet uses the outer one. So spend leaves seventy. Use global to change an outer name. Reading does not need it.
