No, there is no "maybe" about it. Like I said, there are no universal standards in place that identify a hill from a mountain in the United States.
There might be different arbitrary rules created from different places, but there is no universal rule.

There is no universally accepted definition of a mountain. Elevation, volume, relief, steepness, spacing and continuity have been used as criteria for defining a mountain.
