technically, because noone has a higher amount of bones but many people have less, this is false.

that is true, but most of these would either be worse for building a skeleton because they deform other bones or do nothing because theyre just extra bits that wouldnt help anyway (in case its a disjointed bone)

[-] snooggums@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

noone has a higher amount of bones

You could have just said you learned something instead of trying to deflect by moving the goalposts.

It said enough, not the right set of

[-] tubaruco@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

if the bones are wrong would it still be an entire skeleton?

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 2 points 10 months ago

It comes down to how you define the average. You have a person with a bone too much and one person with a bone too little. One person is small, the other is big. What is the average skeleton? What does that even mean?

[-] tubaruco@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

thats the question we shouldve been asking all along

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

Again, the key word is "enough". That implies that it's about the number of bones, neither shape or form or size

Late stage pregnant woman have a higher amount of human bones

[-] tubaruco@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

finally someone that doesnt just tell me there is a very rare disease that creates a single extra bone

anyway yeah if you count pregnant women the average skeletons in a human body is more than one

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 3 points 10 months ago

What about that one horrible disease where your muscles start turning into extra bones?

[-] tubaruco@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

those bones dont help much in making a skeleton

[-] HamBrick@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

Rarer than getting a synthetic hip or being born without wisdom teeth, for example
