I noticed that also. Now, this is a British website with British English, but the “regularization” of verbs has been going on for 100 years. In my lifetime, “dreamed” has become the norm; I get funny looks if I use the (old-fashioned?) “dreamt”. The spelling checker I use in the browser barfs on “dreamt”.

Actually, using “sneaked” is the proper use of the word. “snuck” is not even a proper word. It’s not in the proper English dictionary, unless someone sneaked it in recently.
