Good point, but that's part of the charm of the English language. As someone way smarter than me said (going from memory here so may be a bit off on the quote):
"English doesn't just borrow from other languages, it finds them in a dark alley, kicks the crap out of them and rummages through their pockets for loose verbs."
So of course the future Anglos will have to murderize the Mandarin pronounciation, just the way we are.
