With that definition, we can include Chlorophytum, Liriope, , and what about caudiciforms with subterranean storage roots, right ?

From the wiki "we include all plants with an underground
storage organ such as bulbs, corms, rhizomes, tubers. "

This is a link to the wiki 'What is a "Bulb"?' page:

http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/…

where you will find a hard won definition.
