Err...relating to humans.

How about fire provides a greater evolutionary advantage than furry flammable arms? So early humans kept fire and ditched the fur. This would also mean that homo erectus (or his ancestors) discovered fire before leaving Africa and before becoming "naked"

Unless fire shows up better in the fossil record, it is all speculation. That is all I'm saying.
