I don't think you can do anything about it. They call them hook nails and you get the twisting from genetics. All of my nails hook except my thumb nails. I obviously got blessed with these twisty nails from my mom since all of hers do too. The only thing I know you can do to keep them straight as they grow, is get acrylic nails.

I'm not sure. Most of my nails have bends in them or really rough ridges. I have strong nails so it doesn't make sense to me.

Your fingertips are not there to support them, so they're allowed to get curly.
