I don't see any reason to make different translations because of such minor
differences.
I'm completely happy with international English and SI units.

It's empty.

I didn't. English (UK) is created automatically and apparently cannot be
deleted.

No.
Default language is Finnish.
I made mistake of writing my program in Finnish long time ago.
Although it is fast to write (it is my native language) and I don't have to
focus so much on language issues when I'm programming, it creates more work
as I want to translate it to English.
