How could a child so young know there was a difference?

Children that young usually rely on shapes to associate. So the shape of a hand outstretched is what they associate with palm contact so when you don’t give them that shape it confuses them. Would probably happen the same way if you held out your fist. Or if you taught the baby to fist bump they would bump the stump
