I always looked at it as a convenience thing.  You're not going to have
*that* many forms in any given project.  Also, by their nature it is fairly
easy to give them unique names so they don't really pollute the global
namespace. Or you could leave the plain TFormN form, but for projects of
more than 2 or 3 forms it aides understanding to give them meaningful names.

But for convenience with auto-create forms it is easy to wire them together
by simply including a header and knowing that you've got the global pointer
to the instance.  Also, as created by the IDE, each form is a global
resource, so a global pointer to the instance is appropriate IMHO.  If
you're going to dynamically create and own forms, then by all means, own
them in the appropriate scope...
