The problem is that much biomass burning happens in the form of “take a mature forest, which existed for other reasons, and burn it for the purpose of generating electricity.” This means that you go from having a large mature forest, to having large areas of immature forest.

This on net adds CO2 to the atmosphere until several decades after it stops.
Different areas - you are correct with what you said.
My comment was specifically on those grown to be burned for biomass. Taking a mature forest on the other hand is indeed a problem.
Actual biomass power plants operating today are buying forests to burn them. Those which run in the manner you describe are exceedingly rare.
Not denying that - wish I could though…
