Comment (by sabernhardt):

 Admin pages have given `strong` elements a font-weight of `600` since
 [26072], and it should stay that way (except within the editor canvas).
 Themes that specify the weight on the front end should also set it in the
 editor, though every bundled theme since Twenty Seventeen has the
 discrepancy. Twenty Seventeen to Twenty Twenty-One set the weight to
 either `700` or `bolder` in `style.css` without matching it in the editor;
 the two block themes rely on browser defaults.

 For another possibility, the
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/packages/block-
 library/src/reset.scss CSS reset] could include `font-weight: bold` for
 `strong` and `b` elements in any theme.
