What is a bedroom as far as NEC is concerned?

There is a word for the complex i have and it does not come to me at the time. But it drives me crazy when things are not black and white. That being said, as stated earlier, I am not the type of person to buck the system. I just want to be able to be legit when I tell HO that something is a requirement or not. Just looks as though to me that, at this point, there would be some hard written rule as to what different parts of a dwelling unit are to be purposed for. We all work off of NEC and other various codes and I just like not wondering. As stated before, I will give room AFCi and is not that big of a deal at all. From previous poster, what does make a kitchen then??? If I have microwave and sink, I have the two items that I would consider major considerations in what constitutes a kitchen?(sink and cooking appliance)? Like I said, not trying to stir a nest, but are there any written rules or text that give guidelines for this type of thing.
The microwave would not be a "permanently installed" component if set on the countertop and cord connected.
Whether or not it could serve a tenant for full food preparation is not where NEC makes the distinction.
A portable sink would not count either.
 
Nobody's mentioned Mitch Hedberg?

"I just bought a 2-bedroom house, but I think I get to decide how many bedrooms there are, don't you? This bedroom has an oven in it! This bedroom's got a lot of people sitting around watching TV. This bedroom's over in that guy's house! Sir, you have one of my bedrooms, are you aware? Don't decorate it!"
Fits in to the discussion amazingly well.

Mitch Hedberg was great. Left us too soon.
