Americans, please explain your thought process. Everytime I try to talk food with one of ya'll, you seem to want to claim that one dish is really just another dish under another name. "Hamburgers are sandwhiches," "pizzas are pies," etc. But, for whatever reason, calzones are then considered to be something completely different from pizzas, even though they are literally just pizzas that have been folded.

How the fuck is a hamburger a sandwhich but a calzone not a pizza?

Are you retarded? What they're saying is just that fast food chains (in general, not one in particular) use the term sloppily and that the usage therefore spreads. This is also completely besides the point, becuase again, America doesn't dictate what the rest of the world calls different foods, and the discussion isn't about what the rest of the world calls food.

Calzones are made in exactly the same way as a pizza with the exact same ingredients. The only diffierence is that a calzone is folded before it gets put in the oven.

This argument comes up in a different way when categorizing throws - such as in judo.
You get completely different categories if you focus on how it is for the person throwing and how it is for the person getting thrown.

I would say how it is for the diner is more important of a criteria than how it is for the cook.

So what definition would you create that includes both calzones and pizzas but not other foods? I still want to understand how that could work.

A hamburger is made with ingredients quite similar to other sandwiches. It has meat, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, cheese, and condiments like mayonnaise and mustard. All classic sandwich ingredients. But that's beside the point, as a sandwich is defined by structure. A peanut butter and jelly sandwich is made with ingredients unlike other sandwiches (ingredients much less typical than those found in a burger), but it's a sandwich because it conforms to the structural design.

Calzones also aren't made like pizzas. They have fillings, like turnovers or filled pastas or dumplings. The filling will often be mixed together and then scooped or placed onto the calzone. Whereas pizzas have toppings, not fillings, and these toppings are usually spread and then arranged in ascending layers (sauce, then cheese, then meat or vegetables). Calzones also frequently lack a tomato sauce entirely. Calzones are a subcategory of turnovers, not pizzas.
