With the exception of a few weapons and special effects. Str applies to all damage.

The formula is I believe for damage
wdam+str+2d6(oe) vs prot+2d6(oe) for all weapons.

I would hope that the onus of competency would not be on the phrase but on understanding the game mechanic.

Everything can be interpreted in totally misunderstood ways, especially in a multi-language enviroment. That doesn't mean that this particular phrasing is more or less misleading. Especially if you look at the basic mechanics of strength used in the game. I think the fault comes from making blanket statements of being 'wrong' when in actuallity you have no idea of what you are talking about.
