Evolved hoof theory It is canonically implied that hooves are soft in the My Little Pony universe. Rarity even pricked her hoof. Logically, if she were to have a hoof like a real world equine, the needle wouldn't have been able to penetrate the hard sole. hub Outer all (hard like a normal equine) It is my theory that the outer sole has degenerated with evolution to expose the inner sole. The outer sole has been replaced by a layer of skin. The outer wall, however, is hard like a real life equine's and is used for walking. 0 Exposed soft sole The inner sole has also evolved to become a spongy, blood engorged pad. In real horses, the sole is an important part of the leg's circulatory system Pressing onto the frog of the sole causes blood to flow up through the leg with a pump-like function. This would be a reasonable evolution. This spongy pad can be used to hold objects by pressing an object into it and voluntarily hardening around the object with blood. By molding around the object the pony can pick up a great amount of things like a coin, apple or paintbrush (demonstrated on the right.) This seems to be consistent with previous generations as well. Here, it actually looks like the paintbrush is indented into Toola Roola's sole, just as the pad is theorized to function. This function is similar to a granular jamming robotic gripper, in which air is vacuumed out of a bag full of fine granules to make the bag firm, creating a grip around the item. Here, the grippe is shown drawing with a pen. (Look up "Robotic grippers based on granular jamming" on Youtube.) So why even bother with lips? First of all, the lips are much more dexterous and one of the most advanced organs an equine has. This helps them easily eat fine blades of grass. It may simply feel more natural and can provide more precision for specific tasks.

That actually makes sense. It's weird, but can explain so much.
