While I agree, those aren't the same thing.

C/S corporation status are two types of tax status for companies, whether regular corporations, benefit corporations, or even LLCs.

Benefit corporations are a type of corporation provided for by state law that has society and the environment as inherent beneficiaries of the company, along with the shareholders.

B corporations are a label B Lab (itself a not-for-profit corporation) gives to companies that comply with its ESG goals. It has nothing to do with its tax status or its legal obligations. B Labs requires amending the bylaws, but legally the shareholders are still supreme and there's nothing preventing the changes from being undone at any time.

I realize that that makes the name even more misleading though lol
