Why people dislike global variables so much while I find them so convenient?

Yep! That's totally me every single time! When I'm writing the 
code I feel like a genius! But I only understand how much of an 
idiot I am after I read the same code some months later. We learn 
and improve I guess...

Totally me again! Tbh, How many times have you though about 
solving a problem and then down the road, you thought of a better 
way to do it that is both more performant and more continent and 
thought "why did I wrote this code this way? It's completely 
stupid!"? Yet at the time you wrote the code, it looked perfect! 
Humans are interesting creatures...
