For the record, if you did do the tribe changes for botany reasons, I know how you feel. I once spent some time wishing the mushrooms in PvZ1 had been actual plants, like Nightshade and Moon Flower (this was before Modern Day in PvZ2). I also used to hate Plantern for not being based on a real plant. I also disliked Cactus's gimmick, and was worried that it wouldn't be able to appear in the main series without being gimmicky.

I think PvZH mostly helped by showing plants off that would probably never be in the main tower defense games, but would still be canonical to the PvZ2 universe. PvZ2 also helped when they changed Cactus, reminding me that things change over time. Mostly, just cut the game some slack. It's fine as it is.
