This revert makes sense to me.

BTW, one may count both seats and capacity on benches, why not

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.
