Ah, fair, it appears it will set on s.tl beacons if you don't ever use Clear Variables; I should have caught that in my little demo site. I guess the key difference is that I do count on dynamic values (especially on single page apps), and I do use the Clear Variables action (especially on single page apps), and I like keeping all "global-ish" variables all in one place, so you can set it up once and forget it and not worry about which fires on which beacon, so I'm clearly not the target audience for this functionality:).
But it's come up enough for my clients that it feels like something needs to change- often enough that I've learned as soon as we start troubleshooting a variable not behaving as the client expects, I should ask if they're setting anything as global variables.
But I appreciate you helping me think through how they can be used.
