I know this has been debated ad nauseum on here, but cheesecake....cake or pie? Clearly a pie, but why not called cheesepie?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheesecake

 

Whether baked cheesecake should be classified as a pie, a custard, a torte, or something else is a matter of debate.[citation needed]

The early Greeks considered it a cake. Some modern authors point to the presence of many eggs, the sole source of leavening, as proof that it is a torte. Still others claim that the separate crust, the soft filling, and the absence of flour prove that it is a custard pie.[12]
