Exactly. I dislike it too and always avoid. However, it could be a good starting point. Stepping directly into class-based approach would raise the same question: where to place global instance of that class. Gradual refactoring might have greater side effect of better overall design where many issues simply vanished by themselves. Maybe, (c) will change in favor of well-designed classes, who knows? Dropping singleton code is not a difficult task.
