In my (only partially humorous) opinion: French snobbiness is displayed the most strongest upon the French language.

It is the least mutually intelligible of the mainstream Romance languages with any of the others. By design.

The notions of purity and ripping off Latin- words, expressions, and structures in the 17th century that lead to the Académie Française formalized things. But France's geography and history also pushed the language into it's own harder than the others.
