If everyone could still buy leaded gasoline; they would because its cheaper


We'd be strip mining coal without the EPA. Its cheaper.
Sausage would be cheaper without the FDA

There are a 1000 examples. Maybe you should ask if the government would be giving tax breaks for Tesla's and other electronic cars if they weren't more efficient and cleaner in the long run? You can argue that refining oil and distributing gasoline is better policy than pulling electric energy from a power grid.
