You're right.
There are two subtypes of benzodiazepine receptor, and at least five types of GABA-A receptor. Each has different properties: anxiolytic, myorelaxent, sedative, hypnotic, anticonvulsant.
I don't understand all of the details. I'm not sure scientists do, either. I can't find a good summary using Google.
