Until very recently, the wiki said that seats=* means seats, not capacity:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:amenity%3Dbench&diff=2357111&oldid=2347958
In my opinion, this should be reverted.
Besides, i'm not very enthusiastic about using capacity=* because this
is quite subjective - people have different figures (and feelings at
which minimum distance to the neighbour they are still comfortable).
It seems much better to tag the length of benches.
Best regards

Capacity is ok with me, I will start using that, but still I don't think I will tag that very often, unless it's a huge bench for 20 (I have seen one!) or a very small one for 1 person. I don't mind if others tag seats or estimate the capacity different, as long as they don't remove my capacity tag.
