it just makes the determining what is a planet more difficult.

If this is true, then please tell me what totally non-arbitrary reason there was for Ceres to not be universally considered a planet?

    I'm not sure what you mean. It should be a planet by the definition I gave before unless I didn't convey what I was trying to say correctly. It's definitely large, heavy, and spherical enough to be a planet in my opinion.

    There's tons of different sized objects in our solar system and it's distinguishable enough to qualify in this one.
