xkcd #3063: Planet Definitions
(xkcd.com)
A community for a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language.
Your political nationality doesn't stop classifying you as a human being.
You completely avoided the point I was making, that a body doesn't stop being a planet because it's neighborhood/orbit is crowded.
If the Moon got too close to Earth so that it broke up (Roche limit), so that now Earth has not cleared the space around it, it would stop being a planet for a million years or more until it "cleared out" it's local space/ orbit, based on the rule that disqualifies a Pluto from being a planet.
