How do the theoretical results play a role?

Instead of simulating a null distribution (using permutations), the t-distribution can be used to calculate p-values and confidence intervals. The theoretical result provides a t-distribution fit for the sampling distribution of the standardized slope statistic. Why does it matter if the sampling distribution is accurate?
