May I ask: which features of nano are you most pleased with?

As others have pointed out (or implied): an underscore is not considered
an alphanumeric/word-forming character by default.  That is why nano has
the -X or 'set wordchars' option, so the user can add underscore and dash
and whatever else he/she likes.
