The issue with that is the names. Now, I know Tamba named Pluto, but
at least Pluto fit into the already established scheme, and would
could perhaps argue Tamba tapped into "reality" and was inspired, or
was slipped the idea by a time controling Sailor Pluto (this is an
interesting idea, as I have met Tamba, and went to a school named
after him where he lived at the time, Las Cruces, NM).
Only the "older" other planets have mythological names. You could
probably get away with Sailors Ceres, Xena, Charon (even satellite
senshi, like my own Sailor Eunomia, who was princess of the Astroid
Belt colonies), but then have UBI 2003, and other "planets" that are
too small and insignificant to even be given names, and if they are,
you'd have to explain retroactively why their senshi have the name
some current scientist gave to the planet, especially if it's not
mythology based. If they scientists do go with mythological names, you
may be able to blame Sailor Pluto again...

Amazingly enough, nobody did.
"Well," the woman said casually. "I believe you have your answer. I
certainly hope that another vote won't be needed." The last was the
poorest attempt at a veiled attempt anyone in the room had ever heard.
I believe you meant to write that as "poorest attempt at a veiled threat".
That said, if Pluto-as-a-planet has not been voted down... how about a
fanfic recognizing the new Senshi of all the other *new* planets? :) From
what I read, there were, theoretically, around 50 objects that could be
considered for that kind of sizing, even if only "Xena", Ceres, and Pluto
are considered as such now.
