If there is no reason to be lawful good, because sometimes the law/order will conflict with good, then there is no reason to be lawful evil because the law will conflict with the evil. So, you'd have to cut out or limit a lot of character archetypes, like corrupt police or politicians.

Similarly, there is no reason to be chaotic good, because inevitably chaos/freedom will conflict with good too. Other media, like SMT, play with this because both chaos/freedom and law/order can be taken to unpleasant extremes.

The potential conflict between good and law doesn't mean you throw out the alignment, it means you use it to create interesting dilemmas for the character to navigate.
