【求助】OG SC 30 to do修饰问题（settled）

zyq19911205

30.For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment, a method to protect warriors against enemy arrows and spears.
(A)    a method to protect
(B)    as a method protecting
(C)    protecting
(D)    as a protection of
(E)    to protect


OG对E的解释：Although the infinitive to protect would work if it were not preceded by a comma, it cannot act as a nonrestrictive adjectival phrase modifying items.


那是不是说to do不能做非限定性修饰啊？
