I'm not aware of any technical reason either. It is a personal preference, I think it makes the packages have a cleaner naming scheme.
Accordingly, I have never pushed for it to be a requirement that _ not be used when upstream uses it in its naming, but if the PHP SIG asked for us to amend the PHP naming guidelines to exclude it, I would consider it.
