Jan 8, 2020 at 23:35 comment added AlexArvanitakis fair enough I suppose that that comment was cryptic. In quantum mechanical path integrals the choice of time-slicing prescription (the QM analogue of Ito VS Stratonovich) is related to a choice of operator ordering. The symmetric or Weyl ordering corresponds to the QM midpoint prescription which is essentially the Stratonovich integral (in stochastic contexts). I think you can find a discussion in Hagen Kleinert's path integral bible. I also see a discussion in M Chaichian, A Demichev, "Path Integrals in Physics: Volume I Stochastic Processes and Quantum Mechanics" section 2.2.5
