Pluto is a planet, though. It’s officially considered a “dwarf” planet, and as “dwarf” is just an adjective, it’s still a planet (just like a short person is still a person). The other 8 new dwarf planets (Ceres, Eris, Makemake, Haumea, Gonggong, Quaoar, Orcus, and Sedna) are also all planets - so we have 17 planets total.

Seriously, though. By the same 3 criteria that Pluto isn’t a planet, Mercury isn’t (as it isn’t in hydrostatic equilibrium).
I mean Pluto IS a planet i guess what people mean when they say pluto is not a planet is that it is no longer part of our solar system
No, they don’t.
No, that’s just you. I’m genuinely curious why you’d think anyone would ever make the argument Pluto isn’t part of our solar system.
