Maybe but it looks like the highest point of the pumpkin flesh is higher than the lowest point of the stem so it wouldn't look as good. This way is much less waste and faster because you can print all the stems at once.

Yes, exactly. The bottom of the stem is lower than the top of the pumpkin.

Plus I don't like filament switching.
