They are "essentially one thing"... except for
the little differences that are the reason for the question I was asking: does "global information exchange" in the modern world take place mostly using words like "colour" and "centre", or does it take place mostly using words like "color" and "center"?
As I said when I wondered it myself three posts ago, I don't have the definitive answer, but my guess is the latter.
