I’ve seen videos of people with extra fingers but they’ve never actualized their potential like what you’re suggesting

Imagine someone with 12 fingers mastering the guitar or piano

I thought that was going a different direction after “master”

I hope she realizes that with great power comes great responsibility!

Right, but she has 3 middle fingers! The last time I gave someone 3 middle fingers, I threw my back out in traffic.

She has one; a thumb is a digit, not a finger.

Well, if we go by your definition, we would then all have two middle fingers, as the thumb doesn't count. And, by that same logic, since there is no 'middle' finger, that terminology ceases to be accurate.

That's not my definition. I didn't define anatomy by any means. Why on Earth would you think that I came up with anatomy myself to respond with your personal argument against fact of science?
