Presumably, an argument about the height of a mountain, doesn't include snow, or compacted ice, otherwise the poles would be flat.
I find it strange that there are 'cairns' at the top of mountains, a collection of rocks to point out the summit (don't know never been there), and why is this challenge to prove how high a hill or mountain is? "A man walked up a hill and climbed down a mountain"...

China thinks it should be measured by rock height. Nepal thinks it should be measured by snow height. The difference is around 4 metres.
Tectonics are slowly increasing the height of the mountain anyway as India subducts under Asia and it's being constantly weathered and eroded too.

The poles have nothing to do with height.
Summits of mountains in the UK are indicated by OS trig points - cairns are used on both summits and routes as positional markers - they can be important when you're trying to fix a bearing off of a summit or stay on a path in poor visibility.
Mankind has always strived for bigger and better we are, by nature, competitive and in that respect height matters. Plus it's useful to know whether a mountain is 6000m or 6500m when you're flying over them at night
