I swear Kamoba, if you argue that the thumb is not a finger I will fight you. While the term 'fingers' can be used specifically to refer to non thumb digits, both are valid usage. So no, 5 is not a MISTAKEN number of fingers on a hand, it is simply a differing definition. In fact the root word for fingers is linguistically tied to the word for five.
Therefore, I reset the count.
ONE.
