It's most likely because when you're young and first reading you're not going to read the whole word if you've already read it before. Therefore pronouncing it "stein" not "stain" would make you think that it's spelt like that
I'm going to risk down votes and people thinking I'm stupid but I really don't understand what the text even means? I think I'm just really tired so I'm reading it wrong but if someone could paraphrase that would be great:)
so, most people will swear on anything that these books were called berenstien bears. it turns out they are called berenstain bears. the rest is just reasons why people are confused about the name.
Basically, some people remember it Berenstein when it is in fact Berenstain after the creators. So some people now believe that a parallel universe had crashed into ours, and in that Universe it was Berenstein. So now there's a mix of people from each Universe.
Okay but wasn't the cartoon called Berenstein Bears?
