Dear Joey,
you are right, that way it works. Nevertheless I am convinced that my bottle was not made that way. The reason is that, if made that way, it means that the mold has the shape of the inner layer, and it is hard to believe that it has been made with the shape that we see in the picture here below. It makes no sense to mold the fingers that way and not round.
