It's because of this in the spec
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LanguageAndText#phone-language):
The variation that has the unprefixed language code (or an equivalent)
should be sorted first. For example, en_US = en = “English (US)” (not
“U. S. English”), nl = “Nederlands (Nederland)”. (This avoids hiding the
most common variation amongst many others.)
So in this case it's by design.
** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu)
