Oh, I know that certain Americans can be among the most stupidly rigid people in the world. Some of them are even educated. Actually, sometimes the edumacated ones are the worst, because they think they know, so they're not willing to admit that they're actually ignorant.
And LOL on the English test for the British citizen. This would be like, hm, teaching a fish to swim, perhaps? Then again, I can see that they might worry that you're, say, a Pakistani person who speaks mostly Pakistani but was born in the UK and is trying to get a foothold in America.
