Definitely. Planet Nine will forever be Pluto.

2015 TG387 loops around the sun on an extremely elliptical path, coming within about 65 astronomical units of the sun at its closest point and getting about 2,300 AU away at its most distant.

That is way out there for our own Solar system. Pluto is about 40 AU out.

Or at least they should get their Roman numerals correct and call it Planet IX.

Definitely. Planet Nine will forever be Pluto. Most certainly! One of the first serious books I ever read (1969):

You monster. What did the inhabitants of Planet X ever do to us?

2300 AU’s is far enough away nearby star’s could alter the orbit. It might be an interesting calculation to see if the Galactic black hole has more influence than the Sun’s gravity at that extreme distance.

How is it we can identify planets billions of light years away but not one in our backyard?

We look at a star, and measure a decrease in brightness that corresponds to a planet passing in front of it.
We can also look for light reflecting off a large planet near its star.
Problem with Planet Y is it’s not positioned for us to observe that way, reflects too little light, and we don’t even know where to look.
