It might seem important if she had 8 fingers, too. Or if she had 9 fingers and was a computer programmer: In base 9, [-40, 40] is the range of a two-"digit" signed value.

If it helps, maybe advise her to switch to Martian birthdays? Then she could be twenty-something for a whole lot longer.

It seems important because she has ten fingers, but it is important because others have ten fingers.
