According to EH even a natural stone can be classified as a standing stone if the 'hand' of man has erected and/or moved it

Yes of course - it's the moving and erection that qualifies it. Not all standing stones have been shaped by man. Then there are stones still in situ which have not been moved or erected but have been significant and sometimes shaped.
