+    I'm wondering whether I should still rename gray to gray when using Tailwind CSS...

+
+[I previously wrote][0] about how to change `gray` to `grey` in Tailwind CSS.
+
+So, instead of writing `bg-gray-200`, I could write `bg-grey-200`.
+
+This would be the correct spelling, as I live in the UK.
+
+But I recently realised that I don't change `text-center` or `items-center` when 'centre' would also be the correct spelling.
+
+So, what value is there to renaming `gray`?
+
+It adds inconsistency as it mixes US and UK English in this project and inconsistencies between different projects.
+
+It doesn't match the CSS colour name.
+
+And, if I'm working with others on a project, they also need to be aware of this as it's different from the default configuration and could cause some confusion and affect productivity.
+
+Keeping it the default value would make it easier to work on, collaborate on and maintain.
+
+Maybe, I'll leave it as `gray` in the future.
