We should study the perfect competition because that is the ideal condition where the policy should be targeting, it has the maximum efficiency in the market i.e. the market is allocative efficient and productive efficient.

Perfect market allows the comparison to the other market for knowing how much dead weight loss the market is causing , how much welfare loss in in the market and what should be the ideal policy to put the market back to the equilibrium. It acts as a guide for other market and relaxing each assumption of the perfect market lead to a new market scenarios and condition that is much closer to reality.
