Ok, I'm confused. A hot dog is just a sausage in a bun, no?
If you mean that vegan wieners/frankfurters are bad, than that's the opposite of my experience. I enjoy them more than I do other types of vegan sausage (although that may have something to do with growing up in a post-soviet country and thus being constantly exposed to Doctorskaya sausage)

Why are plant-based hot dogs so bad and yet plant-based sausages so good?

That's a sausage in a bun. I guess this is a language thing?
Doctorskaya sausage looks like it's basically diet bologna? Sausage can be something much smaller, like a bratwurst.
And a bratwurst does not become a hot dog because it's in a bun.
Same reason meat based hotdogs are inferior to meat based sausage. Sausage is king.
