Reminds me of the old chestnut “When is a door not a door?”

[zarf (Andrew Plotkin)]

When it is two separate objects, one in each room, because your world model doesn’t understand the concept of a bilocated object.

[Alianora_La_Canta]

Or when it’s a character in a Terry Pratchett novel

Or a Neil Gaiman novel/TV show.
