Description:
In the EEs, getting a +4 STR bump at 17 STR gives you 21 STR. In oIWD, it bumps up the exceptional strength tiers, so it would be 17 > 18 > 18/01 > 18/51 > 18/76 (assuming vanilla STRMODEX.2DA). The same of course holds for negative increments, so something like 18/93 - 1 would result in 18/76 (instead of 17).
Modders can now enable this alternate rule by toggling a value in X-IWDSTR.2DA (see for instance: Gibberlings3/Tweaks-Anthology#199).

Note:
@Bubb13
Only cumulative mode 0 is remapped to tier stepping. Other engine modes, especially mode 3 (the one that relies upon CLSSPLAB.2DA), have separate exceptional-strength behavior that is intentionally left vanilla here.
