Stephanie Cosme, 32, was killed last year when she inadvertently walked into the rotating propeller of an aircraft in California
A US air force civilian contractor had become disoriented recording data at an airport in California last year when she walked into a jet’s rotating propeller and was killed, officials said on Friday.
In a statement outlining the findings of a report into the contractor’s death, the air force materiel command said that 32-year-old Stephanie Cosme was mortally injured on 7 September when she inadvertently walked into the rotating propeller of an MQ-9A that was parked at Gray Butte airfield.

Are you aware of the level of hypocrisy in your argumentation?
Prescriptivism is assigning rules to language as opposed to descriptivism which takes language as is and analyzes it. You saying American English decided to change half of their words for no reason is a classic prescriptivist stance, ignoring the fact that the language diverged due to distance and loss of shared culture. Not to mention many American spellings and pronunciations are closer to the originals before the split than Modern British English is :)
