Isn't the culinary term "vegetable" just "not sweet plant"?

You want a plant that's sweet -- fruit. Everything else -- vegetable.
Personally I wouldn't mind adding descriptors to everything -- sweet, sour, salty, savory, wet, crispy, mushy, and who knows how many more -- but that's just overly wordy (and possibly overly English).

Also, yes, lemons are sweet (under all that acidity). Just like durian (under all that rot).

A pumpkin is also a berry
Read on Dhalsimrocks' Food Board that avocado is technically a berry.
