Why do we have to use sc.GetPersistentInt functions instead of defining an int in a global scope?

This is a rather basic question, but I am trying to understand how it works behind the hood - are global variables safe, or I shouldn't create any objects at all outside of the SCFExport function scope?

a global static variable would persist across every instance of the study. a persistent variable is unique to each instance. for example, you may want different settings for different charts. there's a time and place for each
