Comment(by zkw):

 I don't mean any offence but to this particular pedant it sounds
 uneducated --- like something Val & Earl from "Tremors" would say. 
 Perhaps it's a British vs. American English thing, a regional thing, or
 just a personal thing.  If Fowler doesn't mind then I guess the only
 benefit of using 'incorrectly' is to avoid arguments with self-righteous
 pedants like me.

 Nit-picking aside, limiting the use of the "strong" warning to alpha-
 quality releases looks good!
