Ok, Ulrik sent me a Word screenshot, and  it turns out that we are
(apparently) supposed to ignore the italic correction when a symbol
is used in 'mathematical contexts' as it is here (as opposed to
'textual contexts', both of which terms are yet-to-be-defined).

Finding a proper solution to this problem will not be easy. TeX82
solves the spacing problems by having math fonts (recognisable by
the lack of a space-width font dimension) as well as text fonts
(that do have a space-width dimension), but that split does not
exist in OpenType Math (as there is only one font).


Best wishes,
Taco
