Yeah, sorry. XD And yeah, spelling conventions not only vary by region, but they can be weirdly inconsistent. Britons tend to write defence but with -ive it's defensive, and they tend to write practise but with -al it's practical. American spelling reforms (which Britons did not share) streamlined some words like defense and practice. But even Americans still have inconsistencies like fence (originally a contraction of defence).
