I’d argue that talking about Bézier is absolutely sufficient in this context; B-splines and Catmull-Rom splines and a few other types are all piecewise polynomial splines (cubic specifically, at least in the case of Catmull-Rom). You can convert B-splines and Catmull-Rom splines to Bézier directly and analytically; therefore B-splines and Catmull-Rom splines cannot do anything beyond what Bézier curves can do. There are some minor usability / interface / intuition differences, but there is no difference in mathematical control.
