Why do literally all dragons in all settings have exactly five limbs, never four or six or any other number, so that no author in all fiction has ever called something a dragon unless it had exactly five limbs?

In most settings dragons are quadrupeds I'd say. Also in most mythological depictions

In my experience it's either two legs, two wings and tail (sometimes called wyverns) or four legs, two wings and a tail.

But a tail isn't a limb you mongoloid.

>>48289292
>A limb (from the Old English lim), or extremity, is a jointed, or prehensile (as octopus arms or new world monkey tails) appendage

actually the standard european dragon has seven, as wings are limbs.

Asian dragons generally only have 5, and also some other dragons have 5.

>>48289333
Dragon tails typically aren't prehensile though.

You know, ironic shitposting is still shitposting, but I gotta say, I like the cut of your jib, OP.
