Bug Description
The first option in the wizard is to select your language. The default is "English (United States)".
Touching the pulldown to change this to "English (United Kingdom)" shows that "English (United States)" is the first English entry, with "English (United Kingdom)" being at the *end* of the list of English locales (some 14 rows below the US option...).
The US English option has been artificially moved to the top of the list. This gives an unreasonable bias.
It would be much better (and fairer) if the default remains "English (United States)", but touching the pulldown shows the list *in alphabetical order* such that I only have to move 1 row to select "English (United Kingdom)".

Sorry, while I understand what you're saying, this is per spec:

You'll need to have the design changed if you want the implementation to do something different.
