Pollux, you left out the part after that paragraph one Runya explains that the theory is more than just speculation:

'''Since the previous hypothesis has been refuted, and there is the existence of those who overcome human limitations without the intervention of monsters or gods, it lends credence to this theory. On top of that, the author will add in her own theory too, but the fact that the effects of “miracle of recovery”, “miracle of power”, and so on, are confined to what is “humanly” possible, regardless of the fact that they can theoretically produce even greater effects, may not be due to the caster lacking the required abilities or mana amount. Instead, it really does seem likely that some sort of “limit” has been put on spells and blessing granted by the gods. '''

Plus do you really think KC would write out and publish such a detailed theory if it wasn't supposed to be seen as true?

In what way is it indicated that humans born without shackles is an evolutionary development? They are listed as simply another type of unshackled human, an extreme minority at that (and that other than being born that way there is no way to distinguish them from other unshackled humans), and that their existence is throwback to the past rather than some kind of recent development. That the chief god does not allow the Order to study just what heroes are lends further evidence to an intentional shackling, which some very rare humans are simply lucky to be born without.

As for maiming monster girls, whose to say it doesn't happen? We already know that things like mass monster executions can provoke invasions from extremist monsters. I'm just unsure what your point is in bringing it up. KC's world is also a fantasy RPG world much more than it is a medieval one, you can't just apply real world history to it like that.

And as for no longer being humans, well the united monster and incubus race is to be a "new humanity" with basically everything worthwhile that the former humanity had. "No longer be human" is a rather vague negative when by all accounts monsters can lead just as productive and human lives as regular humans do.
