It differs from en_GB in that way. It's not "hidden". You can select it as part of your preferences, and yes, you can get suggestions from it. The "Root" is a pseudo-language that is not bound to a particular one, and true localization to US English is still possible, even from packages initially thought as being initially in US English (but not really, with lots of approximations, or using some "international English" form or many regionalisms, or full of typos.)
