The SAZ was being used to stifle the rebellion. It wasn't just about a loss of motive, it was a complete inability to ever accomplish anything.
but that wasnt lelouch's motive now was it ?
it might have been motivation for characters who actually care about japan and its people
but not for lelouch

To draw an admittedly loose parallel, it's like when segregation was still in effect in America and people got moved to the back of the bus, only with an entire country. "You can be yourself here, but we'll treat you like shit anywhere else." That is not a better life, it's being given next to nothing for a name. A pittance of their own land would not satisfy the Japanese people for long, and wasn't meant to. It was a gimmick to get rid of the rebellious elements. They'd repeal it as soon as it became inconvenient.
as oppose to the "we'll treat you like shit EVERYWHERE" that was the case before it
its a step up, and with euphie at the helm, its not likely to go away as soon as you seem to think it would

It depends on what he did with the power he was given. He could always continue his quest for revenge. The problem was that Euphie was stifling his attempt to make a better world to fulfill her own small-minded desires.
euphie was stifling his small minded attempt at revenge, with her small minded desires
again, lelouch is not in this for a better world
lelouch is in this for revenge and the destraction of britannia
the world that would result from such destraction may turn out better
but thats not what lelouch is after
