Is there even a botanical definition of vegetables?
No. What is or isn't a vegetable is determined entirely by whether we collectively consider any given plant or plant part a food item.
A pdf to clear it up, and confuse you more... maybe. https://wpcdn.web.wsu.edu/wp-extension/uploads/sites/2073/2020/04/Is-it-a-Fruit-or-a-Vegetable.pdf
That just defines fruit. Vegetable has no formal definition, and in practice is defined basically as "parts of plants we eat that aren't considered fruits or nuts."
