Author here, I mix up American and British English all the time. It's pretty common for us Brits to do that imo.

See also how all (?) Brits pronounce Gen Z in the American way (ie zee, not zed).

Sorry but it's highly suspect to be spelling the same word multiple different ways across paragraphs. You switch between using centre/center or utilization/utilisation? It is a very weird mistake to make for a human.

I dunno, I switch between grey and gray all the time; comes with having worked in so many different countries.

I mix British and American English all the time. Subconsciously I type in British English but since I work in American English, my spell checkers are usually configured for en-US and that usually means a weird mix of half and half by the time I've fixed the red squiggles I notice.
