I still want it to be called an honorary planet. I feel like that's the best solution.
The solution is that milleanials and older should be allowed to call it a planet, while everyone else doesn't really care. This way the problem solves itself once we all die.
This solution applies to many things, like using neo pronouns, using new versions of grammar, etc. Make it opt-in for old dogs.
You are allowed to call it a planet. Everyone has the right to be wrong about stuff.
