Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] WebXR Hand Input API Specification (#568)

> I guess I'm still not quite getting how a set of enums is more flexible than a fully structured API, since the naming of the enums already implies a certain hand structure.

I think it's more that the enums are not necessarily super flexible, but they're also not the right approach for uncommon hand structures, which will likely need a level 2 and a structured API, but I don't want to design the structured API until we better understand how uncommon hand structures will work at the device level. The alternative is designing a structured API now, but having to design a _second_ one when we get more devices that can handle uncommon hand structures and having a better understanding of how this API should work.
