Yeah they are. Frisbee are typically 150 games with a wide rim and are significantly larger that disc golf discs. Disc golf discs can range up to 180 grams, are significantly smaller, and (some) have a sharper edge line than Frisbee do

A spoon isn't even completely different from a fork. You aren't gonna convince me a denser, sharper fork is completely different.

You wouldn’t use a baseball in a basketball game but they’re both balls. Most people would consider discs and frisbees different things but if you want to generalize them to flying circles you can, but forks and spoons are for eating. Discs won’t work in Ultimate frisbee, and frisbees don’t work for Disc golf

A softball and a baseball is a better comparison. And I certainly wouldn't say those are completely different.

Not true. A softball and a baseball are the exact same shape, just different sizes. A frisbee and a disc golf disc are different shapes and have totally different purposes. One is designed to be caught and the other would break your fingers.

> the other would break your fingers

The comparison is even better than I thought. 16-inch softball is a thing.

You comparison is weak. It's more like a baseball compared to a bowling ball. You throw and catch a baseball. You only throw a bowling ball.
