The absurdity of "lawful evil" becomes plain when you consider the Conundrum of Parity. Look at two people...one who has a doctorate in electronics and builds a television set by hand. Not from parts...we're talking mixing up and testing the capacitors, sucking the air out of the vacuum tubes, making polymer to insulate the copper wires you pulled from a block of metal by brute force. And one who has a doctorate in entropy who destroys a television by smacking it with a huge sledgehammer and yelling, "Ha ha!" Just about anyone in my High School graduating class could have earned a degree in entropy. Some did, actually.... Good and Evil lack parity. Anakin can never restore balance between the light and dark sides of the force. I'd go so far as to say dualism is a fantasy we invent so we don't have to deal with the problem of Theodicy.
