Yes, I think you have missed something, and you have plenty of company. Skin color is the simple excuse. The problem is cultural conflict, not bloodlines (though no doubt exceptions can be listed. Those tempted, please spare us).

There has been a well recognized cultural identity in Britain for a long time, social stratifications and all.

In the USA by contrast, we mainly have to deal with telephone answer systems that ask if we want Spanish or English.
