Yet another non-answer:  A couple years back I "tested" a book on
etymologies by looking up "grapefruit", and found the explanation
that it was because grapefruit grows in bunches like grapes.  Well,
I lived in Florida long enough to know that grapefruit grows pretty
much like other citrus--in clusters of maybe 3 or 4 fruit, but never
anything like grapes.  I put the book back down.
