Reply to comment by agate_ in ELI5 why do people refer to it as the pacific northwest rather than simply the northwest? by Longshot_Louie
Since it went unstated before, the massive boundary created by the Rocky mountains provides a distinction between east and west east-of-the-Rockies from the same west-of-the-Rockies

Reply to comment by [deleted] in TIL strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries do not qualify as “berries” as defined by botanists, yet kiwis, bananas, and tomatoes do. At least blueberries are indeed berries. by Aequitas05
Instead of a officially science, you might phrase it as agreed-upon science convention. I say this because officially tends to give authority or credence to the content that follows. The word berry could have been defined to represent something else entirely, but it represents what it does in Biology by convention.
