Is this global var really neccessary? Normally I delete all those

Is this really a requirement for the lazarus form designer?
The global variable is not a requirement and can be disabled by
removing the "Auto create forms" in the Project Options dialog.
Published components and event handlers however are a "lazarus/delphi
forms designer" requirement - which means everything you drop on a
form is globally visible. I hate that design.
Yes and no
The lazarus/delphi forms designer uses RTTI for created components. RTTI
is only created for published members of a class so for that they need
to be published.
from a RTTI pov this seems logical since with RTTI you already have all
info available. But from a class design pov it would have been nice if
there was a 2nd way to tell the compiler to generate RTTI for some
non-published members
