Those spellings have been around since the 13th century, so it'd be kinda weird to standardize them now.
Other words we can't decide on: litre/liter, neighbour/neighbor and aluminium/aluminum
Gray/grey
You spelled it "neighbour" twice
Oops, thanks. Guess I can't really blame auto correct for doing its job.
Aluminium is the one and standard.
