That doesn't say anything about a global value.

Thanks for the explanations.
Shouldn't 'textwidth' then be described as "global or local to
buffer" rather than just "local to buffer"?
Short comparison:
'textwidth' is local to buffer: every buffer has its own local copy of
it, the global value is only used to initialize new buffers. The :set
command changes both the local and the global value.
"global or local to buffer": All buffers use the same global value,
unless a local value was explicitly set with :setlocal. :set changes
both the local and the global value (but the local value only if
defined).
