If you're innocent, you don't need to lie to your defense attorney.
If you're guilty, the system is not designed to protect you, and there's no reason why it should permit the guilty to commit perjury out of some desire to balance out (?) the fact that the prosecution and police sometimes lie as well.
What is a scenario where an innocent person needs to be allowed to lie to present an effective defense?
