The only discrepancy that I am trying to clear up, is whether or not a tornado can be born from a non-mesocyclone thunderstorm? A friends opinion was that anything non-mesocyclone born was to be categorized as landspout or gustnado. I figured that there have been atleast a few major tornados that were not "birthed" from mesocyclones.
Just a little confused about the "official" point of view. Especially since the distinction between landspout and tornado is usually quite obvious!
