Here's what I was talking about with the Grubs calling you "Steef Dude," plus another little thing where Stranger automatically talks in a location that you can't normally reach in the game:

I don't understand the accusations you're making.
The Grubb populace were aware that Stranger's a steef, or at least had speculations. After all, they saved his clothing and weaponry from D. Caste Raider's lynching. He wasn't THEIR old steef and sure there's doubts regarding whether he's a REAL steef (''he's a bit scrawny for a steef don't'cha think?''), but they clearly have that speculative notion that he may be one, and one capable of saving their society. That's my reading of the narrative, so I don't see it as a bug.
I thought it was a nice nod to the future events. There are other instances of this happening, like the gameplay-changing teaser you see early on in the general store with the fortune telling device.
