Did you miss where I said: > you show respect by using that pronunciation when speaking TO NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS. or > If I was speaking to someone I knew was Dutch, of course I would (try to) say "København." Because what you're accusing me of-- and the words you're putting in my mouth "There is a common English pronunciation. It's pretentious if you don't use the common pronunciation. Show respect to the English speaker!"-- make no sense in that context. German is full of exonyms. All languages are full of exonyms and weird pronunciations of foreign words. It is OK.
