i was just about to create a thread on this lol, if you go back and look at the chunin exams, it lays everything out for you about the B and S. Kakashi states himself that Sasuke would not be a match for Neji, the B surpasses the S just like you stated in your post. Kishi seems str8 to the point about stuff in his manga (for the most part) and during the exams you find out alot...(page where kakashi makes statement)

We also know that a few important areas, Sakura surpasses Sasuke and Naruto (with the chakra control and stuff, dont flame me...i know shes also not a match) and Ino was considered one of the finest female genin of the 11 so she isnt useless...we just havent seen her really in action besides fighting over Sasuke. Ten Ten deamed powerless against Temari and nothing was stated special about her so she would be one of the most useless characters (sad for her i like her lol)

Last thing is, Kakashi also mentions that the Hyuga is the oldest and greatest clan in the leaf...we havent seen shit from them (Neji, Hinata and other B users) in the whole manga (hardly) for them to be that powerful there has to be much much more to the byakugan! that has to play a key into this war somewhere....not to mention if you think about it, the S and B are like opposites of each other. Where the B can see openings to chakra and cut them off, the S can copy moves after seeing them once kinda thing, the S was cursed, we havent seen that with B..sorry im ranting...alotta thoughts and theories are coming out...
