The big question is: does B have a thirst for learning and improving himself? I have seen a lot of type B people in a big corporate environment. They make good corporate team players and good friends. They put their head down and do whatever they're commanded to do, but they don't try to stretch themselves. They stick to whatever has been beaten into them and don't question anything. They don't learn anything new until it is mandatory. In short, they are a perfect fit for where they are. If you're hiring for a big corporation, this is a no-brainer. But don't assume that since he is happy and loyal that he is teachable. On the other hand, if all he lacks is experience, then there's a chance he might be good long-term.
