The simple answer is that it doesn't!
It will change what kids learn in school about the solar system but that's about it. For the scientists and astronomers it means they will need to take into account the definition of 'planet' and 'dwarf planet' when classifying new planets in the future or even reclassifying current planets/dwarf planets...
Hope that helped :)
