Yes, I find it ironic that Graham wants us to avoid "US-centric" speech. We are presumably to replace it with "UK-centric" speech, which would somehow be intrinsically better? The original poster was most likely in the US, since he asked about "sedans and wagons" rather than "saloons and estates," so I'd say answering in the same dialect would be most appropriate and polite. Whereas nitpicking on peoples' perfectly reasonable posts would be considered inappropriate and impolite.
