I saw that you asked about this at the gnome-i18n mailing list too.

https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2020-March/msg00109.html

The advice you got in that thread, i.e. use the latin underscore 
(Unicode U+005F) instead of the underscore from your own script, sounds 
plausible to me. It would be good if you could report back here when you 
have tested that.
