Indians not mentioned?

Given they are the largest group of English speakers and English has this "usage dictates form" rule that allows vapid influencers to be thankfully overwhelmed by people in India dictating the course of English by their very participation and number, India defines what English is and thus cannot be less than 90% usage.

What's more likely, since they dictate what is English, now, by "usage dictates form", the rest of us are no longer fluent English speakers unless and until we can correct our use of words like revert, below, willn't, and of course confirm the right head posture.

Now kindly revert to same.
