Apperently our moon will magically be promoted into planethood 30 billion years from now if this definition is accepted. (if the solar system is not destroyed before)

Within 30 billion years, the Sun will long since have gone into its red giant phase, with it's diameter increasing so much as to possibly engluf the Earth and Moon in its outer atmosphere. We won't care where the Earth/Moon barycenter is at that point

All we'd have left of our Sun is the remnants of a really pretty planetary nebula.
