I see a certain connection to a minor figure from Christian religion.
I think you’re in the minority here, I’ve never heard them called crisps outside of British areas
I think only the USA and Canada use the term chips.
As you say Great Britain uses crisps, as does Australia, New Zealand, India, and South Africa. Although, I would imagine that most countries with a foreign language would use something closer to crisps too.
You guys are always in the minority when you decide to do things a little different. Like you weird date format for instance.

This is a myth. Running was invented by Nike in the 90’s to sell more shoes.
This is a myth too. All of human history was invented in 2020 to make people think a time before covid19 existed
This is a myth too. The entirety of the universe was created last Thursday, we just think it’s older than that because it was created specifically to look older.
This seems plausible.
