Why is it almost impossible to raise your ring finger on its own, when the pinky, index, and middle finger don’t have these issues?

This is an individual thing. I can do this just fine, and to the same extent as the others. No I have never done anything to purposely work this and make it function independently this way. Though, you can if you want. There are exercises for that. It’s just like the splits, or other physical things some can do and others can’t. It’s a mix of predetermined ability and exercise to expand it.
If you want to do it, I believe you can improve it’s independent movement by making the Vulcan sign and moving your rig finger back and forth from middle to pinky. Attempt to do it without moving your other fingers. Repeat daily. It’s all about isolating specific muscle group functions.
I had a speech impediment as a kid(I actually had like six of them lol), that was because I couldn’t isolate specific muscle groups when moving my tongue and mouth to make sounds. While it has improved to the point that I haven’t had a speech impediment for years, there are certain movements I just never learned no matter how much they tried to teach me. It happens. We have so many little individual muscles and movements in our body, that it’s no surprise we don’t learn them all.
