I've traveled a lot, and lived in both France and Switzerland.
You haven't. Francophones are different and way more elitist about their language.

+1 - parent commenter clearly takes too easily of an offense here. Even the French people in my inntercircle agree that there is some level of elitism.
I'm not offensed, it's just wrong.
I get the angle you're coming from, but in multi lingual countries where it's table stakes to be at least bilingual, an expressed rejection of not using language A over B is used often as a social cudgel.
