How do you classify any high heels or platforms as pumps or sandals?

I know pumps and sandals can be open-toe or closed-toe with or without straps. However, I often seen open-toe high heels with a closed back being labeled as sandals instead of as pumps; and I sometimes see open-toe high heels with a open-back being labeled as pumps and not as sandals.

How do you classify any high heels or platforms as pumps or sandals?
Technically, the first is correct, the second is not. The open toe high heels with a closed back are peep-toes. The open toe high heel with an open back is a sandal, but if it has a strap it is a sling-back.
