The presence of human emotions would seem to be a defect that evolution has not yet gotten rid of. Perhaps this should be the main focus of society, to essentially bring our species to an almost "Vulcan-like" state of existence, doing away with almost all emotions and living according to pure science, reason and logic.
Take love for example. Love is unnecessary for the survival of our species. In fact it is reasonable to argue that love is a great hindrance to our potential and that we need to overcome it for our species to survive and further evolve. Were it not for love humanity would be freed to reproduce uninhibitedly never taking into consideration such primitive notions as faithfulness and fidelity. Were it not for love we would understand the true meaning of "survival of the fittest," not wasting our time with the sick and infirmed. Imagine how weighed down we are in the evolutionary process because a silly thing like love compels us to do things like help the disabled, educate the mentally challenged and care for the elderly.
If we truly believe in the concept of "survival of the fittest" then we need to understand how much better we will be when we do away with anything that prohibits us emotionally from disposing of that part of humanity which is not "fit."
