You've read too much between the lines. ;)

A file %excluded in the main package

 * _need not_ be included in any subpackage,
 * does not raise an "unpackaged file found in buildroot" error,
 * may be included in subpackages accidentally (like ordinary duplicates).

IOW, with "global" I did _not_ mean it would be hidden completely and
could not be included within subpackage %files sections anymore.
