Maybe tails became unattractive to the early humans, maybe they associated it with being like an Animal, so those with tails nver got to pass on their genes as they were deemed ugly at the time. Just a random thought plucked from the ether

The way we evolved we didn't need that balance we don't often walk on narrow ledges or do fast running. If you don't use it you loose it. As well Its an added target for predators. If your fully depending on it for balence and a predator takes a giant chunk out of it your kinda screwed.
Its an evolutionary thing why have more when you can have less and be more efficient.
