how is a thumb different from a finger?
Its a thumb. Its oppsable. If you had 2+ thumbs on each hand we would probably differentiate them more
Ah yes, that’s why we can only count to 8 using our fingers
Shit i can count to 100 with my fingers
Are your fingers not opposable? I can move all of my fingers and touch the other 4?
Opposable, meaning positioned in the opposite. Guys look if you cant look at your thumbs and tell they are different than your other fingers I dont know what to tell you.
how does being opposable make it not a finger?
It is a finger but its more of a thumb than a finger. It has its own function and does thumb things
The Sangheli in Halo actually have two fingers and two thumbs on each hand.
