I think it might be the underlying controls behaving differently.
Certainly on Mac double-clicking gets you just the word selected (but
if you then press delete, a preceding space will be deleted).  It's
too long since I used windows to be sure how it behaves, but it
wouldn't surprise me if it was different.

  No, Gnus is a fashion statement.  Emacs is clothing.  Everyone
