There is no such thing as perfect or imperfect in nature.  There is only
survival and the opposite -- extinction.  So far, there have always been
at least a few humans who survived whatever circumstances they were
subjected to.  So we are still here as a species.  Genetic diversity is
our greatest weapon against unknown future changes in environment.
Genes recombine in new ways over and over, presenting us with new
physical/physiological coping strategies.

Also, are you aware of the Neanderthal skeleton found with atrophied arm
and crippled leg?  An old man, who had been protected and cared for by
his clan in spite of his handicaps.  And paleo, of course.
