I ticked other. IMO If a body orbits the sun it should be classifed as a planet or minor planet. Maybe the criteria could exclude those bodies that are obviously not spherical and small (asteroids), if it's spherical, of reasonable size and or has orbiting moons it should be classed as a planet or perhaps planetoid.
