I think they do that to avoid that thing were Chrome/Safari/etc do not draw the underline where the letters are: https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/er57ioliwktkhzeq7... (they want it to look like Firefox does in this screenshot but on all browsers)

It's funny because, back when Safari had just launched this, designers went crazy with ways of emulating it for those who didn't have Safari. Now they do the opposite. Designers are a plague on earth.

As hideous as the Chrome and Safari examples look, that's not a decision a website should be making, or allowed to make.

There's a CSS feature for that, actually:

    text-decoration-skip-ink: none;

Admittedly, not all browsers support it yet, but that's what websites should be using if they want to override the default behavior.
