Technically 'en' is considered to be different from 'en_GB' and 'en_US', there are few sections of the application that might loosen on this, i can't seem to recall any right now.
It should be fine if you updated all 'en_GB' and 'en_US' occurrences to 'en' in the 'concept_name.locale' column and probably update 'en_GB' and 'en_US' values to 'en' for locale.allowed.list.
