I interpreted the "stricter" definition as just being more intense. Like its only used to describe someone who reads constantly, and knows nearly everything about literature. Or someone who is almost obsessively studying math, or chess theory. Or someone who is very interested in numerous "nerdy" things.
Maybe that's not what they meant, I'm not sure. You're right, their wording is kind of ambiguous.
