Is it true that Bach had no concept of suspended chord?

Bach had no concept of a "suspended chord" for instance. Bach did not think of chords the way a guitarist does (moveable stacks of exact intervals, with major/minor system names), as that outlook on harmony was a product of the 19th century, and not a prevalent theory in his day.

Is suspended chord?

A suspended chord (or sus chord) is a musical chord in which the (major or minor) third is omitted and replaced with a perfect fourth or a major second. ... For example, the suspended fourth and second chords built on C (C–E–G), written as C^sus4 and C^sus2, have pitches C–F–G and C–D–G, respectively.

What key did Bach compose in the most?
