Both, use instead. That tag has meaning in terms of the content -- it should be expressed strongly no matter what kind of rendering you're using. You can then use css to say that strong should be rendered in bold when putting your html on a screen (as opposed to saying it more strongly when reading it).
Yes, thanks, I only do this stuff as my job. I'm not a total cretin, you know!
What I asked was which of the two I gave was worse, because I've witnessed one blogging platform that does one, and another platform that does the other.
I'll go with the latter, as, although it's more flexible, and can have other formatting combined with it, you have to be extremely careful you are not turning multiple formattings on and off at the same time. You could do each change in its own tag, but then why not just use a shorter tag, as it can also affects post size limits.
