The difference is whether the wildcards are active or not for matching purposes. For example, let's say you had a low priority default rule that matches all traffic and drops it, and a few other higher priority rules that implement the rest of your policy. If you want to remove that default rule, you tell the switch to delete the flow with all fields wildcarded. If you specify strict, the wildcards are not activated for the deletion and only the single low priority rule rule is removed. If you don't specify strict, then all the entries in the flow table are deleted.
