Then it does exist. It is simply a integer flag. If it didn't exist, 
you'd get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'CENTER'

This is what I get:
 >>> wx.CENTRE is wx.CENTRE
True

By the way, writing to Open Source developers with messages like: 
"Please change your library to be more how I'd like it" is unlikely to 
get you very far.

Try using it for a while, take part in the community, then, if you have 
ideas for real improvements, start be politely inquiring why it is done 
the way it is (there may be good reasons!), then work on and submit a patch.

Also: the odds are very good that the first few "bugs" you find are 
actually misunderstandings on your part -- assume that when you ask a 
question.
