And there is none, there is nothing that remotely suggest that Chico is Quiet, any evidence people have produced so far is straw grasping and nothing more.

This theory started out as a joke, people took it seriously, that's all there is to it. There is no ruse, no misleading, Chico is not Quiet. I never expected Kojima would go back and explain the Cobra Unit with parasites. There was no hint of that in MGS3 now was there?

As far as hints go, another commenter pointed out how Quiet speaks with a Spanish accent during her first appearance, as did Chico. They also share similar complexion, hair and eye color. Kojima claimed Quiet would be the antithesis of female video game characters. We've so far seen no indication that his statement was true. There's a theme in the game about plastic surgery and body augmentation. All of this, and Quiet's mysterious origins, is why people are still theorizing her identity.

I don't necessarily believe these theories are true, but there is evidence. Kojima never explained why Chico had the headphones or why Amanda was acting suspicious in Ground Zeroes. There's no cutscene or proof of Chico being dead, just a tape.

Maybe Kojima intended to use Chico in Silent Hills. If you remember the trailer for the game, it briefly showed a boy who looked like Chico.
