Just asking the question... Why not 4 fingers on one hand and 3 on the other? seems very odd for so many species to be so perfect to be an accident, look at some skeletons...

Have you considered that symmetry is actually an easier feature?

seems very odd for so many species to be so perfect to be an accident,

I don't consider my broken vitamin C synthesis gene (found in all great apes, including humans) to be "perfect".

Good question. I had a friend in high school who was born with 6 fingers on one hand. The sixth finger was removed when he was an infant. I guess it wasn't such a good idea. Just think how good a banjo player he would have been.
