I have also heard that it really doesn’t matter today what extension that you do use, and that neither has an advantage or disadvantage when trying dealing with SEO.

I use .htm simply because it is quicker to type than .html.
There was also debate, back in the day, on whether parsing of a .htm page versus a .html page was a little faster. Though, at this point, with super fast internet connections, this argument is pretty much null and void.
Interesting post!
