No, not necessarily, and I think not particularly likely. Evolution is not "progress". We are not evolving to some platonic ideal. Much of what is discussed in this article are local maxima that our ancestors hit many millions of years ago. Because evolution is not planned, and their is no fitness function other than continued survival, all species are going to be filled with such anatomical quirks.
