As Shaun points out, it gets a little convoluted.

Assuming that British is punctuation outside of the quotes,

en_US: “That color is nice.”
en_CA: “That colour is nice.”
en_GB: “That colour is nice”.
en_AU: Yet another variant?

Leads to a possibility of 4 translations where there were two before. 
Anyway, this is probably not particularly constructive to the debate. 
Not sure where you were going with the question, but the point is that's 
it's mostly minutia that just isn't needed.
