Just to add - we did the right thing, as sweetness comes from being lenient with watering.

You have already mentioned the cause - irregular watering. I have 3 types of Strawberry in my garden - wild, Early Cambridge and Elsanto. The wild and Elsanto ones have the same pitting look as your ones/ Only the Early Cambridge seem to look perfect.
