Default Kepler's second law negates the need for Gravitation

It is generally agreed that Kepler's second law (Equal areas are swept
out in equal times by the line connecting the sun and a planet) is a
corollary of the Conservation of Angular Momentum.

Does this not explain planetary orbits and galaxy rotation without any
need for the imaginary force known as Gravitation ?

Regards
