That implies that eventually, everyone will move to American English.

American English is more of a soft fork than "bleeding edge"

Honestly moving to american english would be a good thing for britain. I've seen even native mfs failing to understand each other's pronunciation. British english has something like 18 vowel sounds but only 6 vowel characters. Multiple letters have the same sound and a single letter can have multiple sounds. That's not what i call an alphabet. Even american english has lots of unnecessarily complexity, but it made a step in the right direction. Ideally, many more such steps should follow.

Huffing 30kgs of american exeptionalism per day ends up damaging about 90% of neurons by age 25.

Poor guy. 😥
