Chaotic good examples are less likely to care how others feel about them, or may even want them to stay away, like how Takumi is a loner due to his fear of betraying them, but that behavior is also what allows Kusaka to frame him in a poor light. Too much law or chaos can be detrimental.

I do agree with law not being the be all end all of good (and I'm just talking about how in general fanbase do view being lawful as being the most good in general), but you're just having bleak view on chaotic ones (and Takumi being a loner isn't even an example). Didn't you talk about Franklin's philosophy of preserving freedom (with you complaining that it's something need to be advocated in Revice)?

Chaotic good isn't about constantly breaking the law, they focus very strongly on individual rights and freedoms, and will strongly resist any form of oppression of themselves or anyone else. They don't value law not because they're apathetic to others' fates like you're implying (e.g. what others feel about them, which seem as in not giving a f*ck, when this sounds like they very much give a f*ck about others but with different approach), but because they value their own consciences (rather than duty) as a guide for good and when the law restricts their and other people's freedom.

Neutral good use whatever means to promote the most good, either tearing down a code of laws, following a code of laws, creating an orderly society, causing the breakdown of harmful kinds of order, or staying away from society altogether. Their only goal is to do good, full stop.

While too much of an either may be bad, the best solutions are not always the exact middle between two extremes. It's a fallacy called Golden Mean.
