"Chaotically aligned" and "misaligned" seem like the same thing?

You could say all chaotic alignments are misalignments, but not all misalignments are chaotic.

It can be, but the nuance between the two is part of the nuance missing from the conversation. Misaligned generally means a wrong alignment, like a car that steers slightly to one side when the wheel is straight. This is more like a car that drifts in random directions the further it goes.
