That wasn't advice. It was an assumption.
CHANG: Escaped.
KLINGON GENERAL: Kirk cannot know the location of the peace conference.
CHANG: Are you sure? Will you take that chance?
And Chang was right. Kirk did eventually learn the location of the peace conference and Chang made sure he would be there when Kirk showed up.
As for the point of West being a Klingon? Sure, I guess it's accurate to say that was weak. However, I do like having the opertunity of seeing Rene Auberjonois playing a character who masqurades as an alien race before he took on a Star Trek role that took that idea to the Nth degree.
