It’s my right as an American to not have extra 'U’s in my words and you’re infringing on it!

There’s no extra 'U’s. What you want is your right to exclude the 'U’s you don’t feel are necessary, it’s not the same thing. There was no need for the 'z’s but you guys couldn’t help yourselves could you!?

I use American English for the superior compression algorithms and the more extensive import features.

At least we don’t pronounce it “zed”

You deserve more downvotes for this
How dare Americans pronounce it as (constant sound)-ē like b, c, d, g, p, t, and v instead of its correct pronunciation as one of 2-3 consonants that aren’t just their sound preceded or followed by a vowel sound /s
That being said, my takes on alphabet pronunciation are total batshit, I have beef with H and Q
