Could be why some very accomplished pickers only use their thumb, index and middle finger.

All agreed. That said, I added a steeper 'ramp' to the thumb side of the nail, whilst shortening it, which has definitely made a difference as the longer the nail the higher the tone seemed to be. Hopefully, that may well have solved the problem.
