Style feats and archetypes can make the monk more supernaturally useful with quinggong making you able to cast a few interesting spells for ki points.
Yeah, but you have to be Lawful, meaning no chaos monk.

Why can't I be Neutral? Because monks should have Neutral as an option. Nothing about "hitting people with your fist" should require a Lawful outlook.
