You are describing an unfree market. By definition, the EMH applies to a free market where people choose where to put their money.

The EMH says nothing about efficiency of producing value, only about price discovery.

“The EMH only applies to an idealized analytical fiction and is not applicable to the real world” would also be a problem with the EMH.

Totally. It is a valid critique. Suggesting that it's valuable in a hypothetical environment is similar to the "not true communism" defense used by communists to explain past failures.
