the point of toenails

[ewx]

What use are toenails? About the only one I can think of is as a surface for painting on.

(I ask because a someone lost a toenail last night at karate. Accidents do happen, but it's a good reminder to keep nails trimmed...)

I can't remember the last time I dropped anything on my foot so I can't compare the former. Certainly I've not noticed any evidence of the latter.
