        Why not ternary? Your fingers have more than 1 joint. If you exclude the thumbs, you could even do quaternary or whatever it’s called.

            The first one from the tip I can’t manipulate individually so you’re right, base 4 is impossible. But 0/1/2 I could do an all 3 fingers and my thumbs. Technically that means the ability to count to 59049, though it’d be a painstaking process.
