pizza_dough -- will only get a direct hit on "pizza_dough"
pizza-dough -- wil get hits for both PIZZA and DOUGH
I've bookmarked this thread bro ... great job!

hyphens & underscores alternatively have different algorithms for certain site values being entertained by the spidering.
For domains, the spiders prefer keyword-keyword.tld
But, for media I see keyword_keyword.file gets better rankings in google image & video search results.
