Please use markdown code for the code in your issue, this is not very readable. See: https://commonmark.org/help/ for more info

Italic is working exactly as it should, your example isn't an italic https://spec.commonmark.org/dingus/?text=*u-*a https://astexplorer.net/#/gist/372eee01459eaf12ce733122893bb587/a852c73ea7e7bc3cbc2bb4352fbb53b5a701fdf0

This is also documented in the markdown spec https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/#example-371
