The MODA drug classification system is such bullshit. You know what else is in class B? Cocaine, one of the 5 most physically and societally dangerous recreational drugs in use, according to the famous Lancet paper by David Nutt et al;

Also in class B, MDMA. One of the least dangerous recreational drugs according to Nutt et al. Nutt is infamous for pointing out that similar numbers of people ride horses and take ecstasy, but it's the riders who come to more harm from their habit (web search "equasy").

You know what isn't even covered in the MODA's 20th century drug classification system? According to Nutt et al, it's the single most dangerous recreational drug used in anglophone countries.Alcohol.

It's a bullshit law.
