Clearly the 2nd law could be at odds with laws 1 and 3, so while I understand the good sentiment behind the 3 laws, perhaps it needs an priority matrix, like maybe law 1 takes ultimate precedence? But of course ethics are more messy in some cases like the trolley problem, etc…

I think that is originally how the 3 laws were created. Each one is subordinate to the ones above.

They are already in priority order. Always follow law 1 first, then law 2, then finally law 3. There's also a Zeroth Law of Robotics: A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
