Fruits vs vegetables is an arbitrary, near-meaningless distinction. See here: youtube.com/watch?v=E8mcTIEVKUU

No a fruit is a biologically defined thing right? On the vegetables I’m with you

The video addresses this. A biological “fruit” is not accurate for culinary use. Lots of things we eat are biologically fruit, but you’d get weird looks for calling it a “fruit” while eating it. The video gives a lot of examples of botanical-fruit-but-not-culinary-fruit, including cucumbers, peppers, corn, eggplant, peas, pumpkins, and broccoli (specifically the buds).
