My argument is that we first evolved to sweat, not wear the skins of dead animals

We may have come from Africa, but it was during the ice age that we really got going as a species. Rapid climate change forced us to develop improved tools and technology to survive. This eventually led to farming, agriculture, cities and modern civilization.

Without the cold, we'd probably have been quite happy staying in the trees.
