Your interpretation is your own, but I as I eluded to before, I view neutrals as a half and half of lawful and chaotic.

In my mind, neutrals don't follow the law to the tee, but they aren't entirely swayed by the impulse of their heart either.

They could be the type with informal rules they won't break, like an evil character that refuses to kill children, but doesn't care what happens otherwise.

They could be a rule bender, like a good character who generally see rules as a good thing, but turn a blind eye to the rules they deem against the people, or bend them to breaking point to help others.

Could even be a true neutral character who goes with the flow. They do what is needed to complete the mission - they will use the rules to their advantage, but aren't above breaking them when that fails.

Sure you could say these sway towards lawful and chaotic, but that's the point. Neutral is a mix of the two, not necessarily its own thing. That's why I don't see neutrals as a problem here.
