And why underline when that has always been the typewriter equivalent of italic, and is also confused for a hyperlink in an ebook.

I get that you are working with the typographically naive and perhaps talking them out of bad decisions is not worth the time.
I've seen bold italic in some eBooks by well known authors.

Endymion by Dan Simmons
Cop Hater by Ed McBain
Abandoned in Death by J. D. Robb
The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents by Terry Pratchett
Orphan X by Gregg Hurwitz
Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness

Just to name some.
