Good list. Mine is more simple: leaves, fruits(includes solanese) roots, and legumes.

Leaves are stuff that like high nitrogen like spinach and lettuce. Fruits are basically fruits and veggies, solanese as you noted, roots like turnips, garlic etc, and legumes are peas, beans etc.

I like your list as it is simple and easy to remember.
I prefer KISS = Keep It Simple , Stupid !
Every year I try to play and experiment with a previously unknown crop to me.
Last year it was Thai Basil ; but I found it too 'peppery' for my taste.
This year it is 'Datura Sativa', which flowers similarly to an up-flowering Easter lily, but has certain medicinal properties.
I intend to harvest seed from this years crop.
Continue to play and experiment in your garden, and grow plants outside your known 'comfort zone'
