They can't have accessible outlets under the benches due to electrical code?

No.

They can’t just cover an existing outlet with wood or paneling or drywall. It has to have an electrical plate over it, or they have to remove the wiring itself underneath.

Yea absolutely, when deleting an outlet it needs to be plated.

They were presumably functional and up to code outlets. It seemed like you were suggesting code was the reason they were deleted in the first place.
