I mean technically it's not in your heart. It's the arteries that gets filed with cholesterol plaques. You die due to the lack of blood in your heart which is ironically causing a bigger void that causes you to die.

why does the body do this? it seems like very stupid design

in fact i should be able to tell it when and where to accumulate fat rather than it just stuffing it wherever because it thinks it knows. clearly it does not!

Because evolution is a very stupid design in that is has one goal and overall it doesn't care what happens after humans are able to reproduce. It also didn't really account for our modern diets consisting of trans fats and high fructose corn syrup.
