Ok, now I have to buy one tomorrow.

FWIW, you might want to check the facts on that one.

I was also thinking of the Silver Spoon cookbook,

The potatoes are different, they are ever so much better in the UK...and the oil that they cook the fish and chips in, makes it taste different, at least imo.

I have to admit i'm baffled by this debate -- so some people use cookbooks and others don't? some make meatballs with gadget and others don't?

Parking my ditto here.
John Gotti was the boss of the Gambino family, until he got busted in the 80s. His son John Jr. took over eventually, but he has a nasty temper, and there were many stories going around about his incompetence back then. It was a big deal when senior went to jail, and the family has not really recovered since.
I once ran a restaurant in NY, and although we did not pay outright protection, we did buy our bread from a certain, Italian, bakery and got our flowers from a certain, Italian, florist and so on. If I suggested changing these suppliers, my boss would wink and tell me that would be a bad idea, even though the bread sucked.
Sopranos style I would also get calls from a guy named Tony urging me to switch to his garbage company (restaurants have to pay for private garbage hauling, and it is expensive). When I refused, he would tell me stuff like, "but, you know, you gotta lotta pretty windas in dat store. You wouldn't wanna sumtin to happen to 'em, now, would you?" We had lots of gumbas in the area, so maybe I fed your second cousin thrice removed, lol.

I haven't figured it out either and I even asked a few times.

IME there is one parent who cares more about Catholic education than the other parent, and all that parent has to do is ask the judge to order the children continue to attend Catholic school. Judges are inclined to do this because it's bad enough the kids are going through a divorce, to have to change schools when there is no other reason to change (not moving away for example). Not all judges, and other factors could tip the scales against such an order, and it could be neither parent wants to keep paying for it, but I have heard from others and it's been my personal experience that it's not hard to get this kind of order.
Thinking about it more, the bigger question for me is parents who would send their kids to a Catholic school in part so their children don't have to "associate" with children who have divorced parents. As if they have divorce cooties or something, lol. :P
