Overconfident people are conquerors. Conquerors do not contribute positively to a harmonious system, true, but I'm not so sure we can glean the system is supposed to be harmonious.
If one contributes "positively" to the system, everyone's value increases and the solution becomes more homogenized. Once the system is homogenized enough, it becomes vulnerable to adversity from an outside force.
If the system is not harmonious/non-homoginized, the attacker would be drawn to the most powerful point in the system.
Overconfident people aren't evil, they're simply stressing the system to make sure it can handle adversity from an outside force. They're saying: "listen, I'm going to take what you have, and you should be so happy that's all I'm taking."
So I think overconfidence is a positive attribute for the system as well as for the overconfident individual. It's not a positive attribute for the local parties getting run over by the overconfident individual.
