What's this thing with people claiming tomatoes are vegetables? It's got seeds in it

Fruit is a botanical term for things with seeds in it. Vegetable is a culinary term. They aren't mutually exclusive so when people say something is either a fruit OR a vegetable, it isn't an apples vs oranges comparison.
