"B" in the user info

Does anyone know what the “B” in the screenshot means? It doesn’t look like a shortcut because it doesn’t work.

Maybe it stands for “Beta”.

I think it’s for the “B” button on a game controller.

I dont have any controllers, i am on PC.
Can anyone confirm that B on the controller brings up the menu?

It does. They show the controller shortcuts on most menu’s.

still no clear answer from anyone nor Mods/Admins…

Mods don’t have access to any documentation or to the technical team. But as mentioned above and as a user, I am pretty convinced it corresponds to the “B” button on a game controller. Even if you are on PC and not using controllers, some controllers shortcuts are displayed.

It’s usually the shortcut button on an XBox Controller for the console users. That’s not an official answer, but it’s a practical one because I’ve bumped my controller on accident while in menus and something happened related to the button if it’s active on the screen in a command shortcut.
