What's more rational: a small group of bureaucrats with no business experience arbitrarily deciding how goods should be allocated, or letting the market decide? It's pretty obviously the latter, considering how horribly central planning has always worked out.

I think the difference is, it doesnt "imitate", that would imply some kind of control, it harnesses the chaotic elementss of human needs pretty well. Better than an "imitation" would.
