Ceres isn't a moon?

Asteroid.

Does it cause isolatable perturbations in the orbits of the other nine
planets?

Does Pluto do that for the other eight planets?

It did for Neptune I believe. That's how and why it was discovered as
a planet in the first place.

So your requirement for "isolatable perturbations in the orbits of the other
nine planets" is nonsense? Isolatable perturbations in the orbit of a
single other planet is sufficient?
