Because the universe is deterministic; I was taught the highway code by my mother as a child. I agree that in a less competitive universe a being could still behave in a way that others find impolite; however you are just describing competition for non physical things; it is still competition; it could still be eliminated by God. In this universe our daily existence depends on the physical suffering of other beings.
