It's small comfort but there it is; British authors are as clueless as Americans when it comes to titles and correct usage. And it's not just that the authors are lazy, although that's certainly part of it; it's that they have been oblivious whenever they've run across it. Or in other words, it's sheer stupidity. Which earns a hard pass from me.
