Not nearly as lazy as you for not reading the explanation of why you're fighting Klingons.
Playing as a different race...that is what the Foundry missions were good for.

More or less the same here, only replace Gorn with Orion. If I feel like playing a Klingon, I could just use a Starfleet Klingon and rarely play my KDF characters anymore.

Besides, as we saw at the signing of the Temporal Accords, future Federation won't require species to abandon their native ways to work with the UFP - the Federation ambassador for the event was a Klingon, in full furry regalia.
That makes no sense. Requiring them to not use their mind control abilities on their fellow officers is not a violation of Federation Law, the reverse would be the violation. They cannot typically control them and would have to supress them one way or another to work alongside anyone who isn't another female Orion, including in the KDF.
By your logic, they should be removed as both playable and Boffs entirely. Unless you reckon the Klingons are fine with their male warriors being mind controlled by Orion captains.
Completely irrelevant to Orions serving in Starfleet. Having an ability that automatically enslaves all sapient males in the vicinity is not their "way of life", it's a part of their biology (their culture was based on that ability, rather than the other way around). Of course anyone who joins Starfleet would have to give up on enslaving sapient life and anyone who joins Starfleet is likely the type who would want to supress that ability, anyway.
But why is this even being debated, anyway? The first comment replied to wasn't even a request for playable Federation Orions and this is off topic. The topic was originally about someone who doesn't know Klingons very well complaining about Klingons killing simulated Klingons.
The KDF would actually be fine with a captain mind-controlling their subordinates - the Klingon ethos is supposed to require instant obedience anyway. (And a Klingon would think anyone "weak" enough to succumb to such control would deserve whatever happened to them, while being smugly certain that they would never fall to "mere pheromones"...) On the other hand, any crew so controlled would find themselves having trouble bringing any degree of initiative to their tasks, so such problems would likely work themselves out over time.
Also we should remember that the orion themselves are a sapient species and are capable of limiting themselves should it serve their purpose, so supressing the phermones would be rational for them if the alternative would be not being able to serve where they wanted (or death).
Always some Klingon House and their allies that don't like the current leadership and their direction, or they just wants power for themself, and other houses that don't wanna see those houses in power or want it themself aswell.
So fighting starts.

Just because there was one in the Kelvin Timeline in Starfleet doesn't mean there couldn't be one in Starfleet in the Prime Timeline.
Also...
There were Orion officers in the Mirror Universe at least in the 22nd Century. One served aboard the ISS Avenger.
