English is a second language for many Europeans and we tend to use the British variant.

It matters because the original title was changed to a term only popular in one country.

There is only one definition. If someone doesn’t know the term, they can look it up. Your original comment claimed that it means different things in different countries, but that just doesn’t seem to be the case. The term seems like the appropriate English translation, even if it doesn’t exist in the UK.

Or the original translation from the article in a UK newspaper could be kept, by just keeping the original title.
