The full name is global current width, but that is too long for identifiers. While each selector tracks its "local" (per goal) width using expander, it is important we do not interleave upper external search for two goals. That is why all selector instances refer to a singleton instance of this. In general, this value remains constant when main loop iterates over selectors and when selector iterates over strategies. After winner is measured, this width is set to winner width value and for some strategies that width is expanded when external search says so. The two methods are not really worth creating a new class, but the main reason is having a name for type hints that distinguish this from various other "width" and "current" values.
