As a guess, you could be right. I generally bow to the expertise of the
professional GUI folks who routinely deal with presenting information to 100s
of millions of people from all over the planet.

But whatever. Regardless of how one might interpret the webmail interface, the
point I'm trying to make clear is that, as a verifier, and from a specification
perspective, Yahoo is *not* interested in, and doesn't care about, localpart.
Obviously other may be, and good for them, but Yahoo is not.
