Nope. Not really. Most people won't ever get cake because they are too poor. And of those that can afford it a significant portion can't have it because of medical, religious or other reasons. And of those who are left many don't even like cake. So yea, it's a crapshoot at best.

Of course defining cake as baked or fried batter is contentious considering that Pastry-Cake - Bread are all part of the same continuim of baked batters. Pastries are marked by shortening whereas cakes and breads are defined by the leavening agents.
Thus a cake is a baked leavened sweet batter, typically with greater fat content and moist texture than a bread.
As to The poll it really depends again on that batter - thus cake, shortcake, Japanese and American Cheesecakes both use a leavened batter and so meet the definition of Cake (the Japanese jigglycake is essentially a souffle based sponge). Pancakes and Crepes are also cakes (unless they lack baking power in which case they are not)
No-bake cheesecakes that use no flour and thus no batter, should probably be considered pies, but really Cheese Pie sounds a bit naff.
