There are three cases where finger qualities may give you a disadvantage:
1. Your fingers are so short that they can't flick the cube.
2. Your fingers are so fat that you can't separate them, causeing a drop in
dexterity.
3. You are missing some fingers.

Otherwise, finger size/length is trivial. Important qualities include look-ahead, dexterity, and reflexes: all qualities derived from diligence rather than genetics.
 
I've met Justin, Jun, and Emerson at competitions, and I don't think they're inherently any slower than me. Justin actually had a faster single at Berkeley Spring, Jun is getting sub-15 averages, and Emerson doesn't seem much slower than normal 2-handed people. ;)

Also, I took this photo to beat Dan. :p
