I was browsing through the description of terms on the Discover site and came across this:

"To be considered marginable, a stock must be deemed as such by the US
Federal Reserve, and it must trade above $4."

If a $4+ stock is marginable doesn't that mean it is shortable? I will have to check with Discover but I thought that $5 was the limit across the board.
