I notice that geom_histogram only accepts the American spelling of center. I like that tidyverse generally accepts both American and English spellings, and wondered whether "centre" can be added as an alias for "center"? Thanks.

Sorry, but I don't think it's worth adding alias for a little used argument.

The use of "center" as an argument has proliferated somewhat across the tidyverse since this issue was opened. Any chance of revisiting it? It strikes me as odd that the tidyverse works with both Commonwealth and American spellings, except for "centre".

I don't think it's worth it, sorry. Working with multiple spellings was a mistake that we don't want to replicate elsewhere.
