If you mean strong in comparison with your own preference that they don't do that, I don't think that would work. It would just incentivize the child to always have very strong preferences.

I think it should mean "If your estimate of the child's preference is strong, consider a compromise".

Sure, but how do you define or measure an estimate of the child's preference strength, when the child is incentivized to represent all preference as maximally strong?
