Does anyone know why the obturator foramen exists? It does not seem to be an exit route for any major structure?

I think its good for nothing. It is bounded by a strong membrane ,but the action is superiorly at the obturator groove, which becomes the obturator canal thru which obturator vessels and nerve passes. Also it is almosted filled by a strong membrane.
