en_GB.xml Gregorian Date Formats

[George S. via CLDR-Users]

I'm looking at the file comm/main/en_GB.xml and I'm really confused. I'm 
looking at the Gregorian calendar section, and there's no

dateFormats / dateFormatLength=short

the value in en.xml is

M/d/yy

If I look at en_AU.xml there is an entry with a value of "d/M/yy".

Similarly, en_IE.xml there is no short dateFormatLength value.

Can anyone help me understand how this all works? I'm using a library 
that generates it's localization files from LDML, and it's coming up 
with a lot of wrong answers. Before I go to them, I'd like to understand 
why things are formatted in this way.
