No. If British terms bothered me I would not read articles on British sites.

It's the Brits who have the inferiority complex that makes them howl bloody murder every time an Americanism appears in one of "their" publications. For my part, I couldn't care less. I expect to see British usage in a British publication, and I'm not scandalized that there are differences between the two vernaculars. And I'm not so dense that I can't deal with both.
