Why are sinodonts so much more successful than sundadonts? What is the evolutionary advantage of having shovel-shaped incisors?

It strikes me the most plausible explanation for relevant success is the rather insane agricultural potential of the areas Sinodonts live and the consequent comparative advantage and ability to colonize the fuck out of everybody around them.

it's not really a superiority, it's advantageous under certain conditions but not others

>superiority of sinodonts
There's a million factors that play into it including geography, resource access, population density, etc. But if you look closely you will see clearly that one is more of an advanced type of human than the other.
