There's another one where you make a loose fist and use your thumb as a pointer (eg https://i.insider.com/581118cab28a64c9018b52c1?width=1300&format=jpeg&auto=webp https://i.insider.com/581118cab28a64c9018b52c1?width=1300&fo...). I'm guessing actual pointing is seen as overly aggressive?
It's called chironomia and it has a very long history - there are even dictionaries of gesture, with systems of notation.
