Pluto's status was redefined in 2006 when the International Astronomical Union (IAU) classified it as a "dwarf planet" rather than a full planet. This decision was based on new criteria that Pluto did not meet, leading to significant debate and discussion within the astronomical community. As of October 2023, Pluto's status remains as a dwarf planet.

A small planet that revolves around another planet?

This is called a binary planet. They are ususally very close together and share a gravitaional pull. A good example of a binary planet planet is the ex-planet Pluto, which rotates with it's satellite Charon. Charon was believed to have been the "moon" belonging to Pluto, but recently scientists decided to strip Pluto of it's "planetary" status, and have also stripped Charon of it's "moon" status. They have now been renamed and are considered to be BINARY stars. Pluto is considered to be a "minor" planet now because of this.

Should Pluto be allowed to continue as a bonafide planet and member of the nine planet solar system or should it be regulated relegated to the recently assigned status of a dwarf planet?

Pluto is a planet, just because a bunch of pedantic stuffed shirts think it is a bit small, it still fits with Bode's law and certainly is not a comet! When it was discovered it was considered a planet and should stay as a planet.
