So the key takeaway here is getting Akane's take on Makishima's philosophy. We now know where she disagrees with him, and (probably more importantly) where she agrees with him.

That's an important takeaway, as you yourself seem to recognize.

Akane was thinking in terms of reviving a judicial system to try Makishima - she already wrote off the Sibyl System as useless in regards to him (episode 18).
My first thought was "How the hell is she going to do that?"

Then I remembered that there are former Japanese lawyers somewhere based on what was revealed last episode. Even if they are too old to be active lawyers again, I suppose you could have them train a new generation of lawyers. Maybe slowly transition from Sibyl justice to a more conventional judiciary.

I doubt that Sibyl would want that, though.
