Exactly my point. It happens. But the happenstance of evolution is not an infallible source of good. The fact that penises evolved with a foreskin intact does not itself mean that the foreskin is essential equipment.

I think people are saying that foreskins are a successful adaptation, and not necessarily a perfect adaptation.

I think it is very easy to confuse one for the other, and by implication "successful adaptation" in this instance is being marshalled as a pretext for what is best.
I reiterate: "evolution" is a bad argument against circumcision.
