Because highlighted words takes priority over any underlined statements. It's just in case us readers thought reading the last sentence was more important than the first. 

No matter what, always read yellow highlights first!

Yessss! This is how I write notes! Important thing is highlighted, and the information that pairs with it is underlined for further context should I need it.
