Mayo sandwiches made with Duke's mayonnaise is the bomb.

Did none of you take history in school?
John Montagu (the fourth Earl of Sandwich) was a gambler and so dedicated he needed food be brought to the gaming table that he could consume while playing cards. He ate beef surrounded by bread and the "Sandwich" became acceptable in European society because of his consuming it in public.
Sandwich = meat surrounded by bread
Hot dog = meat surrounded by bread
Sandwich = hot dog
In keeping with the Earl's dining habits you could say any food surrounded by covering fits this description. Not based so much on meat and bread but based on eating food in polite company without silverware with your hands. As the bread accomplishes this and keeps the "greasy" innards off your fingers much food today could be considered a sandwich including tacos and spring rolls.

So chicken wings are a sandwich?
No, nothing separating your fingers from the grease and juices

What about a corn dog?
No, because without the stick your fingers would touch the greasy coating on the outer shell of the corn dog. Same with rats on a stick as the rats have no dry outer coating that would make the stick unnecessary.

FWIW, playing cards in polite company means not getting the cards all gummed up with things you have on your fingers while playing. Hence the Earl needed the bread to not transfer the grease and juices to his fingers and then to the cards that were used by the others playing the game. That would have been rude and uncivilized so he needed the bread as the barrier.
Also, the unintended consequence of such a invention was the ability to hold cards and eat at the same time. Hard core gamblers who followed his lead had a solution for having to stop play to eat.

Underachiever!
I got drunk, got laid, played football, and still got my studies done.
We had MLT's back in the day because the best lamb came from the south and not Australia.

Never have liked lettuce on a sandwich. It brings nothing to the palate.
Slaw is cabbage. And it depends on the type of BBQ and the type of slaw if I want it on a BBQ sandwich.

A hotdog bun is 1 piece of bread. Therefore, a hotdog is not a sandwich.

No. It’s shite on a bun, regardless of the type of bread used.

Legend also has it that the ice cream cone was also invented at that event.

not the restaurant Subway. Just any sub sandwich.
I would argue a sub bun and a hot dog bun are considered 2 pieces of bread fused together. Even if they aren't manufactured like that.
Plus, that newspaper clip...
