It gets dirty, itches, and even minor scratches can lead to debilitating disease or death. Oh, and it’s weak against the sun and fire.

To be fair, not having skin would make all of those things WAY worse.

Armor can't protect you against everything. You don't fault a chainmail for not being able to withstand a bullet.

The fact that you're not dying of diseases and the sun right now is proof that the skin armor is working

Chainmail doesn’t stop a bullet? (I know there are different calibres)

Yeah, the fast ones, it doesn't.
