Agree, it is a theory and one I believe. Also how/why white skin evolved is another data point to consider. Lighter skin means more Vitamin D in the summer months which is vital for humans in northern latitudes.

Clothes sure, but still were outside in the sunlight during most of the day without sunblock. Take a look at hunter gather tribes still alive today. Not a whole lot of clothes! But sure, some.
