IT is evolution. Not all changes in evolution has its advantages.. They did evolve but their new functions is not readily advantageous in today's environment. Evolution doesn't just go from "good" to "best". If you know what I mean.. It takes trial and error, time and lots and lots of additional time. You cant expect first sign of evolution to be perfect, they whole gene should adjust for a few thousand of years to support the new feature. The body is not ready for the function so they die.
Evolution wasnt easy, the first hands were just a bump for a few thousand of years and if the fishes has the mind the same as us, i think they'll be thinking that they had a defect too (or maybe they think they have cancer, haha)
