View submission: Rule Enforcement Change - Top-level comments must answer the question
It's pretty bad. We've even got items sent to Question Submitters to remove mentions that they're American out if they can, as it just attracts abuse which will deflect from getting an answer. Such is the state of online discourse.
But yes. As it stands highlighting Americanisms in isolation is not a rulebreak on its own unless it ventures into something more like r1 or 6.
The question would be in establishing such a rule, would it be worth the effort? Is the problem so widespread that it actively discourages the use of the sub? As adding it would, like you say, be a fight in every thread. If the problem is so widespread so as to be considered Online Culture, we're not going to have much success in fighting it sadly.
Though. There is a lot of Americans in this sub which detract from response quality. But that is likely a different issue.
There's nothing here!
