I mean, refried comes from spanish refrito which just means ‘fried well’. a dish that is called refrito doesn’t necessarily involve cooking ingredients twice. although in this case you do boil the beans first and then fry them, the name doesn’t actually mean you fry the beans twice as it sounds like it does

Peanut butter is mashed peanuts. More like hummus than refried beans. The refried part involved cooking them a second time.

Sure, but then you mash them. Technically, the peanuts you get in most stores have only been roasted once then mashed.
