          If one is the other, than what’s on which side of the equation doesn’t really matter. They’re still the same thing.
          So sure a calzone is also a burrito. No difference really.

        Hotdogs are tacos.

        hard disagree. hotdogs are made with leavened bread, tortillas are a flatbread.

        hotdogs are an open-faced sandwich.

            Hot dogs are just very congealed soup with soft croutons on the outside.

            It works. my grandpa’s quirky sandwich! Make a kosher hot dog, slice lengthwise, put on a slice of bread, pile high garlic salt and hot sauce, then the second slice. I do think it started off with him trying to make something no one would eat, but my brothers and I jumped on it, especially when it horrified the Moms. He always acted like a little kid with how happy it made him: us kids (even if he was 70+) vs the moms!

              Oh I’ve done something similar! Get some curry ketchup on there and you’ve got a currywurst sandwich.

              That’s a sandwich though, the above comment said open face, so it’s just a whole hotdog teetering on a cut open half of a hot dog bun.

            The top is still open, the bun is split on the bottom.

          My local grocery carries hot dog shaped pita bread - that’s the only way we eat hot dogs now, fill em up with onions, chili, relish and mustard!

          A hot dog is a gyro

            Gyros are Greek tacos?

          Look up Oki Dog. Definitely a burrito. Then ponder how badly you want one and how direly you’ll regret it should you ever eat one.

          The most famous Oki creation was–is–the eponymous Oki Dog, a couple of hot dogs wrapped in a tortilla with chili, pickles, mustard, a slice of fried pastrami and a torrent of goopy American cheese–a cross-cultural burrito that’s pretty hard to stomach unless you’ve got the tum of a 16-year-old, but strangely delicious nonetheless. - Jonathan Gold

            that’s neither a sandwhich nor a burrito. but an abomination.

            (Well, okay. technically it’s a burrito with a weiner in it. but it’s not a hotdog.)(Still an abomination)

                I’ll try almost any thing once. (There are limits. Fried grubs were like spicy/savory gummy bears. Baby octopus in red curry was amazing. “Live” baby squid was… interesting. Aborted duck egg is a hard nope.)

                I suspect it has a lot to do with what else goes in it.

          The top level distinction is topology.

          Second level could be material categorization.

      Legally, at least two of those are sandwiches in the state of Indiana.
