in thread Should Pluto Get Its Planethood Back?

You forgot one... a planet's orbit should be distinct from other planets' orbits... in other words, two planets' orbits should not cross paths... This is true for the other 8, but Pluto cuts across Neptune's orbit, which is a big no-no.

    And why is that Pluto crosses Neptune's path? Why not the other way around? It's not like Neptune hasn't done this before.
