I know they're not the sharpest country in the world, but I'm sure they could understand via the context what words mean. It's kinda rude to Americans that some British people change their lingo for them.
Tbf I say Elevator as well, it just sounds better than lift, plus you're being elevated when using the device.

And some Americans are dumb, I remember the once someone from the US couldn't name a country beginning with U when being surveyed, and sadly it wasn't Satire.
