Ha! It being “Workman’s Comp”, the specialist decided against surgery yesterday and advised me to “grow some more finger over that wound”. My estimated wait time : 5 months.

That said, the three fingers are enough for the harp, but I still can’t manage a pen…

Once it's grown back a little and isn't painful anymore your handwriting and harp playing will go back to normal.
I pressed a doorbell with my right little finger a year ago and for whatever reason it pulled off/split the extensor tendon that has never grown back or healed. Even though the end of my little finger is now "floppy" I can at least write again.
