I also remember in my school smth about it.
But I am certain that a Bench with treated wood would not have the same characteristics from a cuttinf board. So maybe the idea could not be applied to a bench
I learned that wood boards are better than plastic, because plastic gets tiny grooves from cutting where bacteria can grow inside. With wood, those tiny grooves naturally close since wood "swells" when it gets wet.
The wood also absorbs the bacteria, bacteria can't survive in wood Source
