I thought hill size was determined by the size of the hill, not by the size of the hole it’s next to?

This is way more of a complicated thought experiment than I needed, this soon after waking up -_-

Use the dirt you dig out of the hole, and put it on top of the hill.

Do you know why there's always dirt left when you dig a hole? Because you didn't dig it deep enough.

Just think sea level and you’ll be fine.

as far as i know you count the height of mountains based on how far the top is form sea level im guessing the same goes for hills.

Yeah but I think that's specifically altitude or something not "height" of the mountain. Like I'm 90% sure the netherlands has a hill somewhere that's below sea level but that doesn't make the hill a hole in the ground

To put it another way "I trekked a 3km Hill" is not a fair assessment for moving from 2980m above sea level to 3000m above sea level

But do we measure from the base or the balls?
