It's alleged than some screen readers differentiate between <b> and <strong>, though mine don't!
It's likely you can just search and replace if you feel you need to change it.
Note that while ebooks use HTML and CSS largely the same way as web pages, they are not web pages.
Also a Chapter Heading might not be using <strong> or <b> but an H class. Probably shouldn't be using <b> or <strong> directly. Arguably only a word or phrase inline in a styled (via CSS) paragraph would directly have <b>, <i> and the semantic alternatives.
