This comment is full of assumptions about an extremely complex and poorly understood relationship between two things that are themselves very complex. The fact is, we evolved to live in the sun, just as most other land animals did. While it can damage us (just as anything in nature) it's unclear to what extent this damage might be offset by the benefits of sun exposure, or to what extent sun exposure might have a hardening effect against further damage, extending the benefits even further. Sunscreen didn't exist for most of human history, and yet there were no plagues of skin cancer. The fact is, we simply cannot say with any certainty that "the skin should be protected as much as possible".
