Taking chips to send infos knowing it's not the right one

But imo, the community already do something similar: 'if you have a King as high card, pick chip 5 regardless of what is going on, and then play the game normally'.

Just to clarify, that's based on mathematical probabilities, not just conventions. It is like stating that you have a 50% chance of rolling a 4, 5, or 6 on a six-sided die. So even people playing The Gang and not on BGA are using that math as a starting point.

IMO this is fine as a starting point, but if 2 players are taking the 6 chip back and forth, and you take 5 I will assume you have an ace at a minimum, because the context of the 6 chip back and forth has subsequently raised the bar for the 5 chip.

I'm not a fan of this because it would require players to look at the order people took chips in, and not everyone pays full attention to the game all the time, so if people look at the logs they might have to consider a lot of options. If you agree that your first white chip never depends on other players' chips, you don't have that problem.
