I mean what use are nails for, at some point in the human evolution we wouldn't need nails at all

I'd like to add that.. I have stubbed my toe so hard twice now and they had to remove half of the nail Twice and from experience I say fuck them the creation of nails was a mistake existing only to make us further suffer on this cursed land

Humans evolved finger nails to separate Lego pieces

...I can't think of a good reason for toe nails though

its only use is to protect our fingers when holding something with a lot of strength (it'll spread the force around your finger tips instead of it all going to one point

or at least i remember hearing something like that. im not actually sure though
