SOE are enacted to provide the government to expedite normal processes to address the needs of a rapid onset event. However, there is a political side show of politicians racing to the stage in their crested jackets to look in command, to demonstrate prowess under duress, to look like they're in control.
The reality is that all of this is not required, the powers can be embedded in policy, accessible by the appropriate minister when required and procedures established for the rapid access to funding and resources.
In essence, the SOE rules can be enacted in regular legislation.

But if we removed SOE, then we would miss the show.
