I was with you until you started talking about Denali. What do you mean by that?

As I understand it, there are many weird aspects about measuring mountain height. From base to peak, Donali is 18k feet.

My overall understanding on how that is specifically determined is out of my understanding. I'm guessing other mountains which are taller have their bases in the ocean which puts them into a different 'category'. Denali just happens to be completely land-based.

My brother the entire Himalayas are land locked

I did look into it more. Everest has the highest peak, but when measured base to peak, is 200 meters shorter than Denali.
