Spaghetti. Once cooked and with sauce and protein most people might not even notice the difference.
Oh I definitely notice. When I try to suck up the buccatini like it's spaghetti it'll make some disguting mouth noises and I'm left with full lungs and half a mouthful of pasta dangling out of my mouth.

This plus all the different Italian names for coffee which, as far as I can tell, are mostly just describing the amount of dairy added.

You can put it into the macaroni category or call it Bowtie. If you wanted to give me a harder one then Lasagna would have been a good choice.
That's actually simple. Lasagne is a plane spaghetti.

I might even motion to have Lasagna classified as either a loaf or a hot dish instead of including it as a pasta at all.

But that's the Lasagne dish not the pasta you are describing?

Not only the amount of dairy.
For Italians, "caffè" is just espresso. Then you have "americano", which is similar to filter coffee even though it's usually made by adding warm water to an espresso.
Then you have "ristretto", which is a shorter espresso.

I at least split it into categories like Spaghetti and Macaroni.
Fun fact: the original neapolitan name for spaghetti was maccheroni.

Compared to other cuisines, Italian is trash tier; not because it's not delicious, but because it just relies on cheese, fat, meat and carbs.
"Oh wow, this pasta sauce is so good" yea, it's made of cream, cheese and bacon, how was it going to taste, healthy?
Compare that to french cuisine where they put a bird inside the bladder of a livestock animal with wine and a billion native herbs, and steam it in that for 40 hours, where you actually have to have skill to make a culinary tradition.
Although Joël Robuchon can fuck off with his 50% butter 50% potato mashed patatos. No shit it tastes better than at home you prick, you might as well just put butter on a plate.
I think you're mixing up Italian cuisine with fake Italian-American cuisine, which has nothing to do with what actual Italians eat in Italy.

My partner and I call them all "noods". "Let's make noods later", "want some noods?", "these are my favorite noods".
Wait...not everyone knows this is the upper hirarchical term for them and thus says "noodles"???

An americano is indeed an espresso (sometimes double shot) with added hot water. Not Italy specific though, it's just a different thing than filter coffee - but it's true that in Italy you can usually get the former but not the latter.
Some other common coffees: lungo ("long", an espresso that's extracted for longer so it's a bit more "watery"), macchiato ("stained", an espresso with a bit of milk and foam in it, kinda like an espresso version of a cappuccino), macchiatone ("big macchiato", halfway between macchiato and cappuccino), corretto ("corrected", with a tiny bit of liquor, usually grappa or sambuca)
