Pizza existed before they had tomatoes tho

I would argue that the modern understanding of pizza in Italy and across the globe is one that includes tomatoes. Things prior to that called pizza would likely not pass as pizza today. And it's pretty accepted that pizza and tomatoes are very linked. Imo you're being pedantic.

Guess you never heard of pizza bianca then. Please try not to formulate grand theories before knowing just a sliver of the involved facts, thank you.

Arguing that the history of pizza is not deeply intertwined with tomatoes is a pretty weird hill to die on
