We may be at cross purposes if you're creating score-oriented
music.  I generally create lead sheets.  But no matter.

I can understand your question, but will you eventually be
generating single parts from your score?  Would you not then
WANT to have the D.C. included in every part?  \global helps
you there, compared to having to manually insert the D.C.
markup into each instrument part when you go to produce
individual parts.

If Harm's solution works for you, that's what I would use.
However, I would still recommend putting all rehearsal marks
(including the D.C.) into the global music variable, so that both
your full score and your individual parts will have identical
rehearsal marks.
