What. I want this! How do I make this? Just a tortilla, the stuff you listed on top, then another tortilla and cheese?

Tortilla in pan at medium low heat. Add your cheese and whatever other toppings. But another tortilla on top. Put a lid on it. Let it cook for 5 minutes. Flip it over. Cook for another 4 minutes.

Quesadillas are my go-to when I can't think of anything else to eat and it slaps every time. This looks delicious!!

Not Quesadilla policía... however some hints to transcendent crunchy goodness:

-toast the insides first. Crisp one side of tortilla. Put toppings on it. Crisp other side and put on top. Crispy faces insides. Continue as before. Flip. Etc. This makes it 2x crispy and reduces time to melt. -use white melty cheese like Munster or Monterey jack, Oaxaca or heck mozzarella.

Add cilantro, drained chorizo/soyrizo sauté some onions and jalapeños. You are doing great, better is potentially available.

My two remaining onions were no bueno. This explicitly has garden ripe jalapenos in it. Chorizo/cilantro is money I don't have.

I hear you. The evil Walmart corporativa has cheap [$1.50 usd] Cacique brand chorizo hidden by the raw tortillas.

Keep up the quesadilla effort, you are inspiración para otros!

Not that I know of. This is from a pouch. It's literally the only name brand premium packaged ingredient I buy. The form factor makes life easier.

Why not the other way around? Cutting through hard with soft below is not so great.

Are you under the impression there is only one tortilla on that plate?

The quesadilla dimension only sees harder outside and softer within. If you were to flip the quesadilla the same conditions would apply.

Fold a quesadilla, you get 4 crunchy to 2 soft parts. It's a sandwich with a lmesoamerican slant.

This is a simple manifold of crisp starched flatbread sandwiched between a melted cheese along with any accouterments as desired. Either flour or corn is used for this bicarbonate or nixtalmized corn flat bread, whereas the cheese is of the melty kind. Additional ingredients and choice of cheese is limited by cultural or societal limitations.

Call to action: make them on the grill!

That's not a quesadilla, that's a crime against humanity

It's got queso and it's got 'dilla. What more do you want? 🤤

I thought the same, but yeah, sounds like gatekeeping. On the other hand, they could find a name for something like this. In Mexico, we would call this a "sincronizada" (synchronized, literally), I really do not have the slightest idea of who named it like this, but OP's dish is literally it.
