I’m sorry but I can’t get it out of my head:

so Ford feels like a “freak” because he has 6 fingers but we clearly see the kids having only 4 fingers while the adults have normal 5 fingered hands

I thought maybe within universe the children tend to grow an extra finger when they grow up & Ford was considered a freak for growing 2 or something but in the flashbacks, Stanly has 5 fingers:

so seriously – what the heck?

maybe this wouldn’t bother me so much if the whole show wasn’t the result of Ford having these extra fingers!
