I think the point of the “BIG_GLOBAL_STATIC…” name is that global statics are bad, not that the syntax is ugly.

Yes. And my point was that there is an obvious way of sharing data besides passing static-refs, cloning, and using Arcs, which is moving data bidirectionally. That was conveniently, or ignorantly, glossed over by the coping gopher.
