Different functions, yes. Is there a difference, chemically, that would preclude mRNA from being reverse transcribed?

Explanation here for vaccine mRNA.

"So, because the mRNA vaccines a) do not have a primer binding site, b) do not have a kissing loop structure, and c) contain pseudouridines instead of uridines they will not be copied into DNA by reverse transcription."

What? That is a joke explanation. Find a better one. That's looks like great news to me.

Polymerases were thought to only work in one direction DNA into DNA or RNA. This prevents RNA messages from being rewritten back into the master recipe book of genomic DNA. Now, Thomas Jefferson University researchers provide evidence that RNA segments can be written back into DNA via a polymerase called theta, which could have wide implications affecting many fields of biology.

"Our research suggests that polymerase theta's main function is to act as a reverse transcriptase," says Dr. Pomerantz. "In healthy cells, the purpose of this molecule may be toward RNA-mediated DNA repair. In unhealthy cells, such as cancer cells, polymerase theta is highly expressed and promotes cancer cell growth and drug resistance.”

So what happens if you inject yourself with RNA that codes for a cytotoxic protein, and then that RNA becomes integrated into your DNA?

This is a case of a reading comprehension (or just general comprehension) failure on your part. RNA and mRNA are not the same. While this finding is interesting, it has no significance regarding the vaccine.
