BBEdit's behavior predates the macOS intrinsic behavior by a couple of decades; there's an argument to be made that the upstarts got it wrong. :-) That being said, there's an expert preference that can be set via Terminal command, which may do what you need: defaults write com.barebones.bbedit Editor_ModernWordMovement -bool YES (This takes effect immediately; there is no need to restart the application.) It's unsupported and there's no guarantee that it'll do what you want without side effects, but it might be worth trying anyway.
