How does changing the clue to "mosque leader" help? Shi'a Muslims go to mosques, don't they? I think ayatollah should be accepted.

I think you're confused. The leader of a Shia mosque is usually called a mullah. Ayatollahs are high-ranking officials or scholars.

I thought the leader of a mosque is the Imam. Surely a mullah is just a learned man and/or teacher, not necessarily assigned to a mosque.

Erm no one takes the I out of medicine in Britain or U.K. Where did you get your information from?

It's just a pronunciation issue, much like how Americans don't pronounce the H in Herb or the C in Arctic
And the spelling of Aluminium with a second "i" is internationally agreed convention

Who says Arctic without either of the c sounds? I’ve never met anyone who did that, but if they did they would probably correct it quickly as to not sound like an idiot.

It was pretty much standardised in the UK in the 70s, and although it still exists in the UK as a million millions, it is less and less common.

Long notation is the official standard in Britain, however most use short notation. The clue should clarify short or add the long as another question.

It's less common owing to the BBC making a decision to go over to the American meaning of "billion". However, many Brits still use Billion in it's original sense of a million squared. So jetpunk should accept billion as a correct answer to the question just as they should accept the British spelling of distil - or open themselves to the charge of being US-centric again.
