There are 2 different categorization systems - botanical and culinary. Both are valid systems for their topic, but ONLY for their one topic. Calling a tomato a vegetable is the correct answer for cooking, but the incorrect answer for botany, and vice versa.
No, although that’s also true. I’m saying celery isn’t a culinary vegetable, because there’s no such thing as culinary vegetables. Nothing is a culinary vegetable.

Vegetable is just a word we made up for “plant parts we eat”, excluding sweet fruit.

Yep. And I think it’s a useless word. There’s no point calling plants vegetables when it comes to cooking.
