Of course, that's why you're debating what a coconut is.

Why don't we just settle on it being a seedy, nutty fruit?

As complete seed packages, coconuts have been known to travel to faraway lands to find new homesteads. Stories abound of coconuts floating their way across seas and oceans to be washed ashore on distant islands, rooting themselves in handsome groves to greet visiting humans in search of paradise. The dehusked coconuts you buy at the supermarket, however, are no longer productive seed packages. Once the husk is removed, the seed dies.

" Though its name suggests that it is a nut, I've always regarded coconut as a fruit. When the coconut is young, it has properties like fruit, and as it matures, it becomes more nutty. But in fact it is not a nut or a fruit; it is a seed.

Unless it is picked, a matured coconut eventually drops from the tree."

So if it's picked - it's a fruit.
If it drops - It's a seed.

So if it's picked - it's a fruit.
If it drops - It's a seed.
But coconuts are known to drop. So therefore, it's a seed.

They're picked before they mature so that they can go into supermarkets.

So we're both right, depending on whether they're for a supermarket or for personal use, PMSL.
