I’m not sure that that fact is what I’d call fun…
I’m robotics lingo, fingers are underactuated. There’s ~one tendon, but 3 joints. Fully actuated would be one tendon per joint, but that wouldn’t get you a lot of useful new functionality, and you’d have forearms like Popeye.
… Or maybe the new functionality is the ability to crush a tin can like a toothpaste tube!
