Well, as I'm a non-smoker myself and was brought up by militant non-smokers, the experience is entirely second-hand -- I won't vouch for its accuracy ;-)
(A bit like the 'demisexual' who was praising me for managing to explain to her 'how allosexuals experience' romance -- from my investigations on the Web I think that (a) she's a bit confused over her terminology and (b) I'm 'demisexual' myself...)
Potato pizza was a Rose Elliot recipe I learned last year; sounds like the same one. The starch in the grated potato causes it to bind together like flour-based dough, and you just need to have enough patience to make sure it is properly solidified before trying to turn it over, which generally means not trying to put in too thick a layer of potato!
I have seen recipes for 'potato and carrot pancakes' in my wartime collection, and I think I've tried them as a means of using up carrots undetectably -- but of course pizza wasn't a known dish at that point, so nobody ever suggested trying to grill Italian toppings over them.
