> If you’ve never worn shoes your toes are far more splayed.

After 7 years of remote work and living in a warm climate where I rarely wear shoes, I can confirm that my own toes have splayed out.

Yes, I know the splaying is normal for non-shoe wearing folks and not what I'm talking about.

Well I regularly walk barefoot in wet sand and I don’t see any noticeable difference between my footprints and those in the article. I can assure you I am not simian.

Sure, there's all kinds of reasons the fossil footprints might have long looking toe marks. Heck it could've been toenails. Not sure what they used for nail clippers back then. haha.
