Is Planet 9 a Black Hole?

So, here's the latest theory on the mysterious planet-sized mass out in the Oort Cloud: It's a black hole.

To be more precise, it's a primordial black hole. And that's why we haven't found it yet. We need to also look in gamma rays, etc.

If it is a black hole, don't worry. It's a pretty small one, about ten times the mass of Earth, and it won't start sucking in the solar system or anything. It will sit out there in the Oort cloud messing with orbits indefinitely.

Now, there's no actual evidence it is one...it's just a thought to consider.
