Not directly relevant to your post I thought your post was culturally interesting. I live in the UK, and a pub pint will ALWAYS be what you listed as imperial pints. I believe it is illegal to call it a pint and it not be that size. I’m surprised how small the American pub pints are in comparison.
Certainly people must ask for “pints” though and if the server brings them a drink, I would take that as confirmation that they are tacitly serving pints.

Illegal in Canada too - if it’s not 20 +/- 0.5 oz, you can’t call it a pint.
Can’t say I see the word ‘pint’ at pubs very often anymore, though.
