Comment (by abitofmind):

 When someone looks into the topic of "filename to image metadata fields in
 the Media Library" this is closely related:
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/34149 Inserting media via
 Gutenberg creates kebab case in media title vs. Upload New Media preserves
 whitespace]
 - In that case the filename has spaces on upload. (In your example the
 filename starts its lifecycle with underscores and hyphens)
 - The media title then sadly gets "-" minus instead of " " space
 characters. (Kebab case)
   - So I guess instead of writing the original filename without the
 extension into the media title, the filename sanitazion happens first, and
 then the transfer to the media title happens.
   - A pity that such a minor bug takes that long to getting fixed. (I
 myself am no developer, but a UX designer)
