Indeed. It has been surprising to me how vigorously US participants have expressed themselves about this question in particular, given that the option to self-identify existed. As I stated in a previous response, other surveys run by US-based research companies for a multinational market use the same basic format as the one I used.

The objection seems to be "we don't say it that way here", when the survey's target respondents were not drawn from any one "here". This is a reality acknowledged by those US research companies who use similar wording and answer options when designing surveys for a target audience including countries other than the US.
