Someone printed out a buncha shirts with only 8 solar orbits in the system. Obviously easier to lobby Pluto off the team than to reprint the shirts.

And they would have gotten away with it, if not for that one guy arguing about it on Lemmy in 2026.

Tbf, if you were going to keep Pluto in the definition you'd have to include 200+ other orbits

What is going to be funny is if/when they discover planet 9, and all the apparent Pluto superfans just utterly lose their shit when they attempt to comprehend that there can be another actual planet, and no, pluto still doesn't count.
