Not underlining the spaces implies that the words are to be taken individually rather than in a grouped way.
For digital media where the underline is a link, I would say always underline the spaces. Otherwise it very well might be interpreted as three separate links instead of one link.
In a non-digital media where you're underlining only for emphasis, I'd ...

As you mentioned this is a "stylistic preference", with no distinct good vs. bad approach.
For print, I'd still pick version A as the more conventional and easier to follow for readers. The underline in that particular situation is used to highlight a piece of the copy, so that it stands out when cross-reading a page. It is supposed to be a "...
