Okay - I'll bite.  Why only 9 fingers (inferring either + or - one digit
based on how you semantically classify thumbs)?

Either that, or he meant 9 fingers are in the "down" position :p

This is not always true.

DN: Agree.  Not always however decisions made by software are the result
of humans writing and deploying the software => indirectly, humans have
made the decisions.

"It appears to imply that descriptions are 
meant for human consumption."

DN: Which would not be the intent.  I am not good at the wordsmithing
but I think we agree.
