Well, I have seen that in the USA, but not among foreigners, but among the english speakers instead ( by the way, Spanish is the language, not the people, great one )
I think that you have confused several things here

That is the way it is taught in the high school I took Spanish in. It's a pronunciation thing! So there's your answer. Now you also have to remember there are as many dialects in spanish as there are in English! and not all latinos use the transition. Hope this helps! ;-)

Because in the Spanish language the letter "v" it pronounced like a "b"; i.e "bamos"
I am not sure if the entire language is like this, but I know that for Cuban Spanish, this applies.
Have a good day.

We don´t make a sound distinction between those two letters in Spanish, that´s why.

Because in Spanish, a "V" is pronounced like a "B". Vaya con El Diablo, is said, "Baya con El Diablo".
