Examples

“Of course we can't detect⟳ exomoons now (or for a long while), but could planets like⟳ 51 Peg b have⟳ any moons? Wouldn't the star strip⟳ them off? I don't suppose⟳ there can be a moon around a planet that orbits in more time than it takes that planet to orbit its star.”
“Now we get⟳ exoplanets, dwarf planets, rogue planets, and (exo)moons. That's ok, but then comes the utter silliness: none of them are planets. Even those bigger than Jupiter aren't planets.”
