Because it appears that Pluto does NOT answer the qualifications for a planet. After all, beyond the orbit of Pluto is the Kuiper Belt which consists of very many asteroids, all of which orbit. So if you use the criterion of orbital movement as a qualification for a planet, then all those DOZENS of Kuiper bodies would be categorized as planets too. But then if they are Not, then Neither should Pluto be categorized as a planet.
What if a celestial body has a moon or moons? No, that's Not a qualification either. Because Mercury and Venus have No moons,but they are categorized as planets.
