About the concept of hot dog

Some say hot dogs are a specific type of sausage.
For me, a hot dog is a sandwich which has bread and any type of sausage, and possibly some sauce but that's not required.
What do you think?

We have many types of sausages but one wouldn’t dub them hotdogs.

-special kind of sausages and bread
-those onions are kinda special, too

Depends on where you are, I guess. If you serve some non-wiener/frankfurter on non-hotdog buns:

[1] in Europe? No idea.

[2] At a reunion of college professors in Cambridge, Mass. You'll get compliments. But no one will call your dishes hot dogs.

[3] At a Tuscaloosa, Alabama 4th of July party without also having "real" hot dogs? There's a slight but significant chance you'll end up in a roadside ditch later that night.
Hot dogs to me are any processed meat in a sausage format within a long bun. Wieners and viennas in a long bun are all hot dogs but a boerewors (farmer's sausage from South Africa) is in a long roll is never a hot dog always a wors (pronounced vorse) roll.
