Um, not to defend either the US educational system or Scholastic, but I edit, for a living, 
the posthumous works of a fairly well-known and quite dead American author. During the 
author's lifetime and in the decade-plus since, every UK edition of said author's books has 
been temporarily derailed by the British publisher's insistence that we 'Anglicise' the 
spelling, style and vocabulary... The author always demurred, and so, in accordance with 
tradition, do I.

And these are non-fiction works for theoretically educated adults, mind you.

avoid outing his employer.
