Someone already made this point, and once again, "break" is completely undefined. It is not at all impossible or even difficult to select text with - or _, so what's "broken" exactly? At worst it takes one extra step to extend the default selection. These are such weird objections.

I work across multiple machines with different pointing devices (regular mouse, vertical mouse, touchpad), and have no issues double clicking to select a word. Dragging from the start of a word to the end can sometimes take multiple tries. I may miss the first letter. I may drag too far. The vertical mouse isn't great at holding a selection. It's not a huge deal, but it's an annoyance that I don't run into working with Stripe IDs.
