    Not sure if the amputation part is sarcasm, but if new folks get born there, they surely have all limbs intact (unless there’s a secret cult that creates amputees out of new peeps or something else crazy).

      It was a real world example of something similar that hopefully more people could relate to.

      Also, some people are born without one or more full sized limbs. They aren’t amputees because they never had them, but those people exist.
