What is the distinction you are trying to make?

For example, I-10 is certainly an interstate and it is certainly a
freeway as well - it's even known as the Katy Freeway in one town that
it passes through. What makes it an exception?

Or are you going to claim that it stops being a freeway when you leave
town? At what point does it transition from being a freeway into being
an interstate?
