Comment(by mp2300):

 At least variables from the core could be declared global.

 It is a big deal when a object is created in non-global scope and assigned
 by reference to a global variable. The reference is global, but the object
 only exists in the local scope. By using the non-deprecated syntax, the
 object is created in the global scope.

 There are better ways to enable loading of wordpress from external
 scripts, but they require a more extensive refactoring of the code.
