Karman line could be a good limit sure, but I think the orbit still kinda makes sense to include “on the planet”.
Say for example if the apartheid baby gets his Mars colony thing going, from Earth’s perspective it wouldn’t make much difference if a person is standing on Mars surface or on the orbit - we could say that the person is on Mars.

They would be in Mars orbit, but not planetside. “At Mars” might be a middle ground designator.
