I wholeheartedly agree.
"To Pluto And Far Beyond" By David H. Levy, Parade, January 15, 2006 -- We don't have a dictionary definition yet that includes all the contingencies. In the wake of the new discovery, however, the International Astronomical Union has set up a group to develop a workable definition of planet. For our part, in consultation with several experienced planetary astronomers, Parade offers this definition: A planet is a body large enough that, when it formed, it condensed under its own gravity to be shaped like a sphere. It orbits a star directly and is not a moon of another planet.To Pluto -- And Far Beyond

I see those headlines on those videos, too. They are very sensationalist. They’re a turnoff to me because to me they’re no different than a lot of videos that are really nothing more than click bait and offer no usefulness to my knowledge of the subject matter.

The X was meant to show that an unnamed planet could be out there. That’s kinda been lost. OTOH, X is the Roman numeral for ten, which means, Planet 10 is being looked for. The demotion of Pluto was strictly political and should be ignored. Instead, it’s boilerplate.
