"Goff" is just silly. It doesn't make sense according to any rules of pronunciation.

"Go" makes sense from the standpoint of just not pronouncing a final -gh.
"GoX" makes sense from a "let's get the end right" standpoint.
"XoX" makes sense from a "I know Dutch" standpoint.
"GjoX" makes sense from a "I know he spoke with a Brabant accent and I'm going to say it how he said" standpoint.
"Goff" just doesn't meet any of those criteria.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

No, certainly so. Carochi's Grammar of Nahuatl from 1645 conclusively disproves your wikipedia.

I think the British version sounds like they are not trying at all.
