    actually, you’re forgetting about amputees and people born with fewer limbs. it’s likely less than 1.

        the question is: is a skeleton that’s missing pieces still “one skeleton”? And if so, at which point does it become not a skeleton? Because i’m reasonably sure you wouldn’t call a severed foot a skeleton even though it is still arguably “one skeleton” that is just missing a lot of pieces.

      And you’re forgetting that about 1% of the population is pregnant at any given time and has another whole human inside of them.

        honestly curious about how those two would end up statistically balancing out.
