The SD damage is inflicted after strike damage is resolved?

By card text, yes. It occurs "After strike resolution".

The card
text says its damage comes after *strike resolution*, which is a bit
before resolution of the damage from strikes.

No, it isn't.

Damage resolution is part of strike resolution, but OK.
Strike resolution occurs in two stages: apply effect(s) of strike(s)
and then resolve damage (if any).

Strike resolution is all of VI.C.2 - apply effects is b, damage
resolution is c.
