Just throwing a spanner in the works here - googled the following:
What is the role of the thumb in hand anatomy?

“Medically reviewed by Daniel Wiznia, MD — By Rachel Ann Tee-Melegrito — Updated on February 17, 2023
Is the thumb a finger?
Anatomy

Summary
The thumb is one of five digits on each hand, but it has a different shape and function from the other digits. However, most medical guides refer to the thumb as a finger.”

And that’s where I’ll leave it for all of you to argue about !! Ha, ha. So who and which is correct?? Let us know, and I’m sure there will be differing comments depending on the words ‘finger’ or ‘digit’!
