Legs as long as fingers basically means no legs and people live with that.

Fingers as long as legs sounds so insane you’d need to have surgery to remove them BUT you don’t have to completely cut em off, keep some.

So I’m going for leg sized fingers which I then get operated. If that is a cheat answer I’ll go for legs as shirt as fingers

Do the leg sized fingers keep the three joint arrangement, with three bones? And/or is there a significant change in structure to compensate for the length?

Because if there’s an increase in joints and/or commensurate change to muscles and tendons, leg length fingers is a no brainer. You’ve now got awesome tentacle-fingers. Otherwise, they’re useless because the structure we have wouldn’t be able to make them work right.

Being essentially legless isn’t fun, but it’s better than having drastically weakened or useless fingers. Hell, I’d rather be in a wheelchair than deal with just the arthritis in my hands as it is.

But holy shit, can you imagine arthritis in three-foot long fingers?

Fingers > Legs, but it depends on where the joints in my fingers would be. If I could scratch my own back in its entirety without having to become a yoga expert, it’s an easy sell for me.

I’ll be the Napoleon of thumb wars. Men will sing my name for ages. (Assuming, like the other person said, they don’t just grow long until they snap)
