I wonder if strict and stricter FEATURES are somehow hardwired to each
other inside portage code, or whether they're considered separate
entities?

Anyway, you could try FEATURES="-strict -stricter" to see which way it
works. If that won't work then the next step could be to play around
with the QA_STRICT_* variables mentioned in make.conf man page
(haven't tried, so don't know if they'll help either).
