But we also say “dedos das mãos”, don’t we? A lot, in fact. You are not seriously trying to convince me that you are portuguese but you do not know this, are you?
“Dedos” can be used for hands and feet. Fingers are exclusively used to describe the digits of the hands. That’s my point.

Absolutely not. If I come running saying “ah meu deus, quebrei o dedo” you’d immediately assume fingers, not toes, if I meant toes I would specify, otherwise fingers are the default. I don’t think I can even recall a scenario of specifying “dedos das mãos” except for some kind of medical talk or children’s play or something like that.

Sure, which means just like the map implied we use “fingers of the feet” to say “dedos dos pés” and we don’t have a specific word for it. Thanks for confirming my (and OP’s) point you tried to deny.

You’re very angry for somebody disproving their own argument one comment later.
Huh what? Dedos are fingers. And we say “dedos dos pés”.
You said “nope” then wrote a paragraph of text to confirm what you just tried to deny.
