    But James just wrote that turning off colors causes underlining to
    work correctly.

It causes "underlined" text to appear as bold.  That's not correct
underlining.  As a substitute, it may be better than nothing, for
other apps.

    That means the Linux console is in fact capable of
    underlining.

It means the console is capable of pretending to underline.
