The notion of perfect competition is incompatible with the laws of
thermodynamics and describes a system with Bose Einstein statistics
which is implausible for any complex system at a temperature significantly
above absolute zero.

I'm only talking about APPROACHING perfection.

A better way to think of it (the way I should have phrased it) is
"maximizing competition".
