Two products. Both made from potato. One is texturally crisp. Let’s call that a ‘crisp’. The other one isn’t. Let’s call that a ‘chip’.
It’s worse here in Australia. They have to call chips ‘hot chips’ to differentiate them from crisps!
Insanity, people. There’s no logic here. We’re all rational people.
Crisps are crisp.
Chips are the other ones.
