I meant, I bet many English speakers mispronounce the word. Sorry about the confusion.

Oh, no misunderstanding afaik. I meant to say that the word is not that hard to pronounce even for non-Germans.

I truly believe you overestimate the pronunciation abilities of non-German English speakers attempting to pronounce German. They will say "spits candidate" and call it a day.
