I have gotten my foot stepped on MANY times, as I normally wear opened toed sandals, and though it hurts, I have yet to break any bones. People usually have a problem with unkempt feet, but that would be a problem with unkempt parts of ANY body.
Yes you are right of course...sandals being a very good case of offering very little protection. However, all footwear does give some protection if there is any form of broken glass or crockery (or anything sharp for that matter) on the floor.
