I think that may have been part of what lead Pluto to be deplanetized. In just my time on this forum there have been numerpus supposed “extra planets” found. At one point there was a tenth planet and two different 11th planets (or as we less educated would count, 12).

I guess someone decided we couldnt call every as yet undiscovered planetoid a planet in the future so they demoted Pluto.

Im old fashioned and I think Ill keep 9 for now.
