16 ft 4x4's are available at any lumber yard.

It's not the post availability that's ridiculous, or expensive. It's the
holes.

The 16' post availability is questionable but possible, digging ten
foot deep holes is extremely difficult but possible, but the real
absurdity is _why_ dig such deep holes? There is _no_ structural or
stability benefits, and there would be _greatly_ increased cost.

I confess to not having check the local yard of 16-footers, but the hole
thing is just silly.
