They are compelled to make decisions for efficiency reasons as much as the government is. Companies make boneheaded decisions based on ideology all the time.
Additionally every time I hear someone claim that companies running everything will be more efficient, when I dive into their beliefs I find out that they expect organizations they call “governments” are required to do many tasks that would not be required of organizations they call “corporations” and that is where all the “efficiency” comes from.
If this was supposedly so much more of an “efficiently system then why has Texas experienced years of outage causing problems in their electrical grid?
