As far as I'm aware all edible parts of a plant are considered vegetables, be they leaves, roots, tubers, or fruits. So why aren't nuts considered a vegetable? Where is the line drawn? Are there any botanists here who can explain? I've tried DuckDuckGoing it but apparently my searching ability is weak the results are ruined by people asking if avocados or capsicums are fruits.

Fruits aren’t considered vegetables; they’re considered fruits

It seems strange to consider leaves, roots, and tubers vegetable subtypes but to exclude fruits. Why did this happen?
