I agree with the majority of your sentiments about the French except for the above. Americans have not figured out that bread is supposed to be stale a day later.

In fact, it's illegal to make bread that wouldn't be stale the next day.

French bread is required by law to avoid preservatives, and as a result baguettes quite frequently go stale within a day of being baked.

This is an understatement. Baguettes are classified as bludgeoning weapons within 24 hours of removal from the oven.
