I can't believe we're being lectured about our own language by people who can't pronounce the word 'aluminium' properly.

It certainly is a British thing...therefore correct and not "unfitting".

I meant "unfitting" as a matter of perspective. Correctness, on the other hand, seems as though it should rely on actual definition. Or am I being redundant?

Who says the "actual definition" is the American one? Like a lot of words, it has different usage in different parts of the world.
