Hi, Stan.  Some genera like to get pot-bound before putting on the flush of
top-growth needed before planting out.  I don't know about strawberries.
Another advantage to starting seeds in small pots is that you can determine
and control moisture level much more easily, giving the gardener a handle
on some of the common scourges of seedlings such as damping-off and
dessication.
