why does the human body store so much extra fat when it could just expel it in stool?

If the brain recognizes that we are not active and is storing tons of excess fat, why won’t it start to expel it if it’s causing health issues? I feel like the brain should understand that humans shouldn’t be 600 lbs and it should realize that it doesn’t need to store all of that potential energy

I wanna guess the answer to this would be if you looked at Neanderthal times; during the seasons food could be scarce so we evolved to store the fat in case we needed it later ?
