Most importantly, if you use 2 gallons of peppers, you've made a peck of pickled peppers ;)Say that 3 times, fast.

I'm not sure I've seen too many jars with a mouth too small to fit a Tabasco or cayenne pepper.
And really that's talking chopping, not dicing which is an entirely different semantic argument.
As it relates to the vinegar semantics, you might note that both the commercial product and recipe you provided for pepper vinegar show whole peppers and neither include sugar. Also both the commercial product and recipe say that you can continue to make more by simply topping the bottle off with more vinegar. That's because really that's all pepper vinegar is... Vinegar infused with pepper flavor. It's just a liquid like any other vinegar, e.g. apple cider vinegar, white wine vinegar, red wine vinegar, etc...
I'm not as up on recipes as some of you are. My Pepper Vinegar is simple.... I use Apple Cider Vinegar with home grown Tabasco Peppers. Anyone who says all peppers are the same is off their rocker. Even peppers of the same type can have vastly different and complex flavors. I collect and try peppers from many sources and when I find "that" right one, I stock up. I still have some bottles inherited from my Daddy when he passed in 2005.
Good stuff....
Remember being at a wing place with a friend who was always complaining about the wings being wimpy. Chef went across the street to an asian place and got an assortment of their hottest peppers for a special sauce. Friend made through 4, said JFC those are good, but I think they just ate through my stomach lining. When they were delivered by a guy wearing gloves, ;)I made a chicken tender for a customer that was made with oleocapiscum @ 1.5 Mil Scoville Units. It had warning labels.
It was for a football season LTO...they pulled it after 1 week...too hot for the average consumer.
We tried to warn them...how it passed the taste panels is still a mystery?
The Chef kept insisting...hotter

That would imply Liberty and Freedom. How unwoke can you be?Well they may not know any better.
Hot sauce is like sex...it's all individual preference AND it's all good.
Tabasco has a distinctive flavor...fact.. and it's trademarked.
Use what you like.

You know what is really good. Biscuits and sausage milk gravy with Tabasco sauce. Just yesterday after men's prayer. Oh, and greens (I like a mix of turnips and collards cooked down with ham hocks) with pepper sauce mixed together with mashed potatoes (made with butter and cream).Brother...I'm one of those Evengelacals...we don't come more Un-WOKE.
I've even been told my scripture quoting is offensive to some on GC...and has even driven people away... imagine that...Truth, Love, and Morality is offensive?
But hay, we were talking hot sauce vs Tabasco vs flavored vinegar.
