Tortillas have fat (lard or vegetable shortening) and leavening (baking powder) typically, and from what I recall roti have neither.
I am not an expert on either, but I did grow up and live in NM where our tortilla sections are larger than our bread sections in the grocery stores.

Texture and taste are different. Flour tortillas are somewhat airy due to a leavening process and they also tend to have a very mild sweetness.
They're the same thing
Lmao no. Besides both being round flatbread, roti and flour tortillas are not at all similar.
I only had roti in India and all I remember is saying "this is a tortilla" to my coworkers there.

They have a different texture and mouth feel and taste. Also roti (or rather chapati which is the type of roti most similar) is made with just flour and water and sometimes oil. No leavening or anything or salt. Chapati is also much more stretchy and robust.
