Everybody thinks 12-base is a better number system. 12 is divided on 6, 4, 3, and 2, but you can't use your fingers to count in 12-base. Is 6-base the actual finalmath-pill? You can count until 5 on one hand and keep 6s on the other hand.

You can count to 12 easily with your fingers, use your thumb to touch each finger bone in turn

Hexagons are also easy to use as a reference for a sircle, when doing sin, cos and what not.

that's not very elegant, and with 6-base you can count until 35 on 2 hands.

Half a sircle circumference would be 2pi*0.3 in 6-based.

Yeah, but the best answer is the simplest answer. Using one finger for one number is minimalistic and simple.
