Minor nit, but I always appreciate receiving these -- in US English as well as British I believe it's always written "bury the lede"

  I don't think that's the case. Lede is at best an alternative spelling, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_paragraph#Spelling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_paragraph#Spelling and FWIW, I'm British and I've never seen it spelt lede outside of this forum. I guess it's an American thing, and even then, it's pretty wrong.

    I'm British and I'd spell it as lede, that's how I've predominantly seen it spelt also. So as clear as mud then!

    FWIW, I'm British and I've only ever seen it spelt 'lead' by Americans on this forum :)
