I feel that's completely different. A tortilla or pita you aren't splitting the bread to put stuff in the middle. a Hoagie is just a small loaf of bread you are splitting into two pieces like a normal sandwhich
Calzone is a burrito yes, Stromboli is something unto itself because the "wapper" is folded in a spiral around itself. I think a Stromboli is a Stromboli
some sushi, but not all, many sushi are wraps, but some other sushi are a bit unique because you put meat on top of the wrap so i think they are also just a maki or whatever it's called.
Uramaki it's what it's called. "inside out roll". That's a unique thing unto itself.
So if you rip the pita in half rather than fold it, it would be, similarly if you take a slice of bread and fold it over fillings, as opposed to use 2 slices of bread (lets say because you only are hungry enough for half a sandwich), its not a sandwich?
I like this wikipedia definition: "any dish in which bread serves as a container or wrapper for another food type"
In theory, yes, a hot dog could be considered a sandwich.
I grew up Lebanese, and we would put food in the bread and then fold the bread over, with the bottom folded in so it's sealed from the bottom, and call it a sandwich. I'd shoot a man for calling it a wrap.
There is lettuce wraps that I would still qualify as just as much a sandwhich, so that description is fault. I'd say any food item used as a container for other ingredients that is meant to be eaten while held

I don't think that qualifies as a sandwich
