I don't remember, unfortunately.  :(

specially after showing there were
inconsistencies between browsers.

It's worth asking the IE team whether they changed because of concrete web compat issues or just to align with the spec and other browsers.

Yet nobody wrote a use case where a
dev explicitly marks a callback as strict

It doesn't matter. The web compat constraint, if any, would be with sloppy callbacks. If the callback expects a "this" object other than its global, the caller needs to pass it explicitly. Unless you want callers introspecting the strictness of the callee before deciding on what to do with "this"... but that seems pretty weird too.

Curious to know if ES5 at that time was popular.

I don't know what you mean here.
