> When one double clicks the underscore in this text

If you double click on a word-char you select a word
If you double click on a symbol-char you select a symbol
If you double click on a paren-char you select the sexp

So yes, it's probably expected, tho exactly which chars are considered
word-chars vs symbol-chars vs punctuation ... depends on the major modes
and other such details.
