How is it different than the company making fake rhino horns to flood the market to fill the demand and reduce harm to real rhinos?

I don't know enough about how the market for rhino horns works to say. If putting fake rhino horns on the market encourages a more thriving market for rhino horns that then places a premium on real rhino horns, it can indeed be harmful to supply fake rhino horns: the practice will then have a foreseeable net effect of killing more rhinos.
