Adding to this, the subthread that followed on from my comment ends up illustrating the point quite well: the harder governments try to override spontaneous order, the further they go down the path to totalitarianism, which I hope people here would agree is not "desirable". Which is not to say there is no legitimate role for government. Hayek himself identified pandemics and a social safety net as legitimate cases for government intervention.
