Pretzel and sling bikini hierarchy

There's a bunch of stuff in this tag that's actually o-ring bikini variations like post #9831855. Are those still pretzel bikini?

The issue is whether the X-shape through an O-ring is enough to call it a pretzel_bikini, especially when the straps don't match.

In post #9831855, the top and bottom straps are aesthetically different, which breaks the 'single piece' look of a pretzel. I've found other examples where the straps maintain a continuous aesthetic through the O-ring, which makes a much stronger case for the tag.

Should we only count it as a pretzel when the straps are continuous in style, or does any X-shape with an O-ring count regardless of the bands? post #5849419 post #9873467

Also the problem with sling bikini top -> halterneck is that:
