Granted, they were discontinued for a long time, but they were charged with keeping an eye on the "underground" aspects of life in the Empire, and, how was that worded, fundamentally non-military threats to the Empire, were they not? Nowadays, I would imagine a Jhereg "noble" might get the information, but the Lavodes sound like the perfect way to go about that business, and that's probably one of the reasons for their creation.
