Evolution doesn't "overshoot"; neither does it "provide." Could we please start talking about evolution without talking about teleology, maybe? Would that be too hard? Evolution is a consequense, not even a process, and certainly not something entity-like.
In fact, that understanding is pretty much exactly backwards -- ancestral humans overshot their brains in an environmental sense, so their brains evolved to be better in response to environmental selection pressures.
