Edit: it seems that b and a both came in 1999. Oh well.
Ugh, yeah I still remember working at a school 20+ years ago trying to figure out why I couldn’t connect to WiFi with a lab full of computers. Amazingly I feel like we’re only just now at a point where WiFi is mature enough that a current system is basically the same experience as twisted pair.
You want to be really confused then? Because b is WiFi 1 and a is WiFi 2. Everything else you said is correct though.

They also weren’t compatible with each other. That was fun.
