I can't say that I've ever wondered about this, but I guess, when we "meet our maker" we can ask then.
Seriously, though, there must be some evolutionary advantage to it. Can you imagine what it would be like walking on feet where all the toes are the same length? I think I would be stumbling all the time.

that could explain the toes, but the fingers? i tried imagining holding something with all fingers the same length, it could be hard, too. maybe, it would be difficult to grasp something.

Yeah, I was going to mention fingers, too, but hit submit without thinking, and there's no "edit" feature here that I could go back...

I figure if our fingers and toes were all the same Length then it would be more difficult for us to grab on to things or pick them up. we would not be able to move in the same way as we do now.
