I just wanted to mention this for further reference: When I reviewed
this, I found that the underline makes the text less easily readable
(unfortunately!). I did a quick search and there seem to be a lot of
resources confirming this:

-
https://www.uxbooth.com/articles/is-the-underlined-link-hurting-readability/
- Actual research from Hamburg university:
https://vsis-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/getDoc.php/publications/119/www2003.pdf
"Underlined links seem to substantially decrease the reading performance
on Web pages". (The research only talks about links, but Google even
removed underlines, in favor of underlining links only on mouseover).

In the end, sajolida removed the underline altogether. We can search for
other ways of emphasizing sentences in the future.

Cheers!
