I tried to make a logo properly using circles and lines, and then combining them with Shape Builder tool instead of tracing the sketch manually, but I am left with nasty tangling stacking paths and points.

What I was up to is dividing circles by 15 degree and use shape builder tool to my liking.

My question is why this happens and how to prevent this?

Your corners are set to Miter Join. You can fix this by:

Going to Window > Stroke or Ctrl/Cmnd+F10 and change the corner to either Round Join or Bevel Join
