Ribbed for your pleasure?

I did my own research
and found that the American Ribbed Toad is otherwise known as a 'tailed frog' - and the tail is in fact an "extension of the male cloaca."

So it's more likely ribbed for their pleasure, I guess the females' pleasure specifically, since they employ internal fertilisation and the females are presumably the ones selecting for bigger male sex organs.

You have way too much time on your hands

I barely spend any time on my hands.
What do you have against knowing stuff?

Nothing
But amphibians, although lovely, are not a topic I feel like spending time on
