Not awfully surprising, honestly. Multiple people edit the same page, but different parts of it. And each person has their own spelling preferences. Our community is pretty split between American and British spellings, so standardising it to one or the other would have just been a headache. That's why we decided to just treat both spelling variants as synonyms.
