What's the difference between XHTML Traditional and Strict and why doesn't myBB switch to XHTML Strict?
Not being argumentative, just curious. Thanks...
PS...tried to BOLD the word Strict above and couldn't for some reason, says "undefined".
MyBB was written using Traditional to take advantage of certain attributes and tags which Strict doesn't allow. Traditional basically allows more freedom when it comes to using HTML. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

There's no real point changing this in a minor release. MyBB 2.0 will be using HTML by the looks of it.
No longer involved in the MyBB project.
