No, counting with fingers is bad. Count with phalanges instead. It's more efficient

Just be sure to do it in binary. You gotta squeeze all of the value out of those phalanges.

That's impossible, because it would require tracking each digit at once. Counting in binary is kind of possible with fingers, but not with phalanges.

Kind of? It's quite possible and easy. I spent an afternoon counting syllables to create shitty poetry, and my fingers started counting on their own. Now I can count to 31 on 1 hand and it's surprisingly useful.

Drag is in pain when drag tries to fully extend the middle or ring finger with all others clasped.

Drag has issues giving the ๐Ÿ–•?

Damn dude, start doing some stretches unless it's some condition. Overtightened tendons can do that.
