triphalangeal thumb?

The Youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDD7bQTbVsk and some of its reader comments seem to show that David J. Peterson has triphalangeal thumb. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 12:49, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, he has polydactyly. Sai ¿?✍ 13:09, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To follow up on this, Sai ¿? is correct. I have both polydactyly and thumb hypoplasia. In other words, I have an extra index finger on each hand, but am also missing a thumb on each hand. This means I was born with five digits, but four index fingers and no thumbs. Through surgery my two "thumb" index fingers were turned into more or less functional thumbs. I understand that this is basically "original research" in the talk section of my own Wikipedia article, but at least it's something? DavidJPeterson (talk) 23:39, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
