The short answer is that it does not in any way dominate the region of space that represents it’s orbit around the sun. It’s not the biggest thing in it’s orbital path. It crosses Neptune’s orbit during it’s journey around the sun.

We have also discovered many other bodies like Pluto. If we call Pluto a planet, we have to call all those things planets, too.
