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.
