I'd like to offer a friendly early warning of the ... debate you're about to encounter with your description of our vastly superior electrical outlets and plugs

  Arcane isn't a judgment on value. You could use the word "rare" instead if you like.

    It totally is and if you'd ever stood on one you'll know how magnificently sturdy they are.

  I could totally live with Schuko instead of BS1363. A lot of earlier standards in Europe were crap, but Schuko does more or less everything BS1363 does, and at 3.5kW instead of 3kW. I could probably be argued around to the French alternative to Schuko, I think Schuko is better, but the French way (and the plugs that accept either but not other crap systems) isn't terrible.
