What petty hill will you die on?
For me I say that a truck with a cab longer than its bed is not a truck, but an SUV with an overgrown bumper.

As an American, I would just like to say that "aluminium" is better than "aluminum" because it matches the -ium suffix of most other elements.
But I am gonna have to disagree with you on the sulfur/sulphur debate. We already got shit like naphthalene and phenolphthalein to worry about spelling, i don't need any more spurrious "ph"s when a nice simple "f" will do just fine.
Oh I do think it's simpler, I just disagree on the principle of conceding our cooler spelling of Sulphur to the US version when the US still refuses to use the proper Aluminium pronunciation (which is also the official IUPAC pronunciation BTW)
Can't have the cake and eat it too afterall.
