They are necessary because they protect the sensitive spot of your toe and keep out some germs

No they are not necessary. They were a caveman usage- to forage, to fight etc. Now we don't need them. With the toenail gone, just normal skin is left- the body seals up everything leaving everything clean and tidy.
