Well, there's several kinds of TNO's. There are cubewanos, plutinos, twotino's, and scattered disc objects. There are cubewanos with inclinations near the plane of the ecliptic, and cubewanos with seriously inclined orbits. There are TNO's with different colors. And then there are planemos and Oort cloud objects. There might be Lagrangians.<br /><br />Statement of fact: I'm biased towards classifying these objects dynamically. And that's not fair or anything like that, I just like working with orbital dynamics. Some might have a meteorological bias, which would have the most bearing on whether or not an object could, at least in principle, support a biosphere, so that's as legitimate as a dynamical bias. There's mass bias, too. And when we start seeing more objects orbiting other stars, some presently unimaginable bias might prove useful.<br /><br />Best bet is for the IAU to Define and Rule. And if the situation changes due to new discoveries, as it has twice already, then they have to change the rules. <br /><br />I think those who want Pluto to be a planet are unwilling to learn all those names and what they mean. That's limiting. My opinion is that they should stop calling it a planet. It doesn't fit in with the other 8.<br />
