Banana trees are made up of giant leaves, not a trunk. So they’re more like a giant onion instead of a tree.

Exactly? Sorry, nerds ruined this one.
You know what a fruit and a vegetable are. It has nothing to do where the seeds are. Botanists don’t get to change the English language.
Like everything else in English, you’ll figure it out from context.
Vegetables don’t exist botanically and fruit has a very different meaning in a botanical context when compared to the culinary definition
Intelligence is knowing tomato is a fruit, wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
Salsa is a tomato based fruit salad. (I don’t take credit for this, I read it somewhere)
You can still consider roots, stems, and leaves as vegetables.
Of course you have to be more stringent with fruits, and nuts/seeds imo are in a category of their own.
We’re not talking about whether something is a fruit or a vegetable lmao
This is about what kind of fruit something is, e.g. a berry vs a drupe
