Saint Wolf, if you have ever been fortunate enough to rip part of your fingernail off, you will realize that it is definitely for protection. The skin underneath there is very very tender. Trust me, I know.

Grabbing is a primary function of fingernails and toenails. The soft tissue underneath produces the nails. The nails provide pressure to fingertips and toe tips for their functions.

HUSTLER had some centerfold issues with "Scratch & Sniff" My 10 year older brother Joe Don told me more than once in dating advice; Once you get past the smell you'll have it licked...

really, protection of soft tissues ? I am pretty sure you will find the opposite answer that it's main function was for defense and for grabbing stuff to ensure more secure grip, not for protecting soft tissues.
