The scarcity of documents in the historical gap between the alleged historical origin and the modern era is another major strike against it. Of course, the archery explanation sounds a little too good to be true. The fact that the ancient document commonly used to validate the meaning of the "V" gesture has only surfaced recently adds weight against the popular archery origin, but it doesn't necessarily invalidate the possibility that the story had another (now obscure) source, or was passed down verbally. Or the gesture could be a more recent revival derived from an inaccurate understanding of the history (as is the case with the Roman thumbs up/ thumbs down). There could have been a corruption of the story or the gesture itself, from three fingers to two. The loss of the middle and index fingers would likely be sufficient to prevent an archer from using a bow efficiently, so it's not necessarily inconsistent logically. Similarly, the fact that three fingers are required to use a longbow doesn't necessarily invalidate the origin. It's just an indication that our understanding of the gesture was corrupted over time. Our modern use is wrong, but it doesn't debunk the origin of the gesture. Thumbs up ("swords up") meant that the loser fought poorly and deserved to die, i.e. In ancient Rome, the emperor gave the thumbs down sign (meaning "swords down") to spare the life of a losing combatant.
