I agree with some of the others that it seems a little complicated and time consuming. I did not say that it is not useful. I would say that it is something you would probably not pull out of the game box every night but perhaps when it might be relevant in a situation, a periodic role playing check, or to prove that the paladin is at best neutral but most likely evil.
Of course if you like numbers none of that probably matters to you. And I think that you should at least pay a little attention to the alignment for role playing. I don't think it should matter for most if they just float in and out of alignments.
I once played a stonelord paladin and asked if we could reason with the orcs that did not do use any harm.
