"-ize" is standard everywhere in the English-speaking world.

Americans insist on "analyze," "paralyze" and "catalyze" but
paradoxically also on "lyse".

I will use American English instead of my native Finnish in my code so
why wouldn't you use American English instead of your native variant of
English?

It'll also make you get a remote sense of the pain the French are
feeling.

If it's any consolation, even the Atlanta-based CNN makes their anchors
speak standard Hollywoodese.
