I understand fingernails for the most part. But why do we have toenails? Do they serve a purpose?

We are, generation by generation, slowly losing our pinky toe because we walk less. Not an answer but I think the reason is because when they’re there we need them. They protect our toes.
The real question is: if you cut off someone’s toenails at birth (not suggesting this!!!) would the skin underneath be as rugged as the skin that is next to that which is usually coveted by the nail. And why aren’t babies born with their nails needing to be cut?
