That's a fair point - I was more getting at the fact that people like yourself have a better command of the language most people who post here. You're entirely right, of course, but I would say that if you're writing from the perspective of a Frenchman, it seems pretty pointless avoiding what you perceive to be colloquialisms because you just don't have access to that understanding of English.
