I just learned that the option to pick this style shouldn't be available to natural armor creatures... unless they are wearing armor and opt for that instead (which would be silly)
Update: It looks like it (correctly) ignores the defensive style without armor in the character sheet, so that's good, but unless you're close paying attention it wouldn't be clear it was ignoring it.
Maybe turn it red if it isn not currently usable due to requirements not being met?

Both races can wear armor, but have the rule, "gains no benefit from wearing armor" so I think it would be incorrect to prevent a character from taking the defense fighting style.
Having something that indicates for the selected Fighting Style whether it is active or not is a good idea though. :)

Should this option be removed for those races (or at least a note be made next to the entry for it)?

I have a tortle who wears armor because he's so scarred up from being tortured it shames/embarrasses him.
