This could be your Tony Iommi / Django Reinhardt moment! How you adjusted your technique to play with a finger obstacle! Seize the moment!!

Yes, pick. Splendid idea! This little accident could be the genisis of a great bass pick player.

Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull, arguably the greatest rock flutists of all time, when asked why he chose to play the flute:
“As a child in the used musical instrument store, the only thing I could afford was an old flute, so I bought it and learned to play”
The rest is history…
An example of how circumstances can mold your future.
Of course, I had to include a video

Not-arguably the greatest guitar player of all time wanted to play the saxophone. But his dad couldn’t afford a sax (they were, and still are, prohibitively expensive). So at age sixteen, he started to dabble on a guitar.
The rest is history.

Agree with what you are saying about circumstance, but in my brain “rock” and “flutist” do not belong together. 
That being said, I love it when rock bands have a string section. I tend to not be into brass much, but some genres it shines in, like funk, jazz, etc.
For what it’s worth, I played flute when I was 12.

Ah, Frankfurt. With Gary Novak, and the late Dave Carpenter on bass – to whom Allan once said “I swear I’m gonna get you a one-string bass sometime!”
Dave died way too early.

This might sound more familiar for you:
Note the guitar bit starting at 3:00. Bill Bruford, who did the drumming on that track, remembers that solo as a highlight in his career.
