I don’t see how this detail is relevant. The fact remains that humans are, in evolutionary terms, much more successful than most other mammals.
What do you mean by “in evolutionary terms, much more successful”?
Good question. I think a good approximation is total body mass of the population. By this measure, only cattle are more successful than humans, and obviously only because we deliberately breed them for food: https://xkcd.com/1338/
