I wouldn't rely on tofu as a replacement for animal protein but if used sparingly as an extra protein boost(not the only protein,of course)it could be a good treat.That said,the utilization of soy is much worse than animal protein(with eggs being the most bioavailable of all!).There are also issues with enzyme inhibition,and it can be a gas causing food,so it definitely needs to be limited.
