Would you like for Chucky as a Killer in Dead By Daylight?

Yes
If they could find a way to make it work, I'd be all for it.
I always thought that they should incorporate multiple different kinds of heights to address Chucky's issue but just as a general gameplay mechanic. For a game that prides itself on being asymmetrical, having only 2 available heights for all your killers "Average" or "Tall" feels extremely limiting.
Which is why I say they should broaden that scope much further and add two extra heights and make all of them a range or spectrum that characters would fall on. Not just 2 static heights that make up "tall and average" but 4:
Short, Average, Tall, Towering.
Each encompasses a range, say average is anybody within 5-6ft tall, tall is anything from 6-7, and Towering is anything or anyone that's 7+ feet while short can be anybody that's under 5 feet tall.
This makes the game and subsequent gameplay far more dynamic in which killer you select and it also broadens the scope widely with the kinds of characters BHVR can create. Not just chucky, but beyond - think of an original creepy child killer, or future licenses make the Xenomorph much taller than anybody else, or literally anything else.
You could also tweak the heights of existing killers to accommodate this change, for example when the teaser trailer revealing the Oni first came out I and a few other people were a little bit confused. The trailer makes him look huge but in game he's about the same size as everybody else. The Oni would be the perfect example of a character that would be "Towering":
