I finally checked out the etymology of armor/armour.

Somehow, only British English spells it "armour". Even the original French doesn't spell it that way, but "armeure".

Usually the atypical spelling is post-Webster American, due to his attempts to make spelling simpler.

In this case, no spellings match the original French/Latin.

I always wondered why armor wasn't a cognate with the Spanish armadura, now I know why. Thanks

Leave it to the Brits to steal something, bastardize it, and then make it standard throughout the Commonwealth.
