I would argue a Singleton is no better in this respect.
The fact that they're instantiated into an object, don't make Singletons any less "global" than static methods.
Yes, it does. You can code a singleton and change the code without changing the interface. You cannot do that with static methods. Static must remain static, the singleton can change, depending on how you code it.
