May I dare suggest that the English-US be put in its natural place? If
it was, then my poor brain/eyesight would not have been confused.
It is in its usual place, but the pre-selected language - whatever it is
- is taken out of the scrollable list and presented as a special 'top
entry' (there is a horizontal line between it and the scrollable list
denoting this).
Then I think it just be a list with checkboxes, with possibly a line at 
the top saying how many languages have been selected.
That doesn't really suit the design, it's trying to be a friendly
welcome screen. Most people are only going to want to pick one language;
it's usually going to be the default, if we get things right. We don't
want to overcomplicate it. The screen isn't a full 'locale selection'
screen, it's a 'hi, here's anaconda, what language should we speak to
you in?' screen.

                If geolocation picks a different pre-selected language,
English (US) appears in the list with the rest, in the position you'd
expect it to be in. This is a standard GTK+ widget design, I believe.
According to
https://geoip.stg.fedoraproject.org/city
I am in Auckland, New Zealand!

Is therefore the selection of English-US a statement of how much control 
the US has over NZ?  :-)
No, it rather just indicates that the geolocation is not running for you
for some reason and you're falling back to the default. As Ed
established, the geolocation service anaconda uses does work for your
IP, so as he said, it suggests your networking is not actually up at
this point.
