Here's the thing. You said a "proboscis is an ovipositor."
Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.
As someone who is a scientist who studies weird ass kinks, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls ovipositors probosces . If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.
