Think of it this way, where else might someone have such a high degree of anonymity, thus enabling them to freely share knowledge about such codewords - imagining for a moment, that the person who posted the list, is perhaps a low-level consumer of cp who suddenly grew a conscience in light of revelations of how insidious this whole operation is?
Maybe a scumbag did the right thing for once.
I was skeptical of 4chan as the source at first myself, but having considered the above, I'm willing to run with it not so much as 'gospel', but reliable considering the content of the emails and subsequently, what has been discovered about and peripheral to CPP.
The sale and transfer of these images goes on in the 'dark web', thats a fact. The language used to make or initiate a sale will probably not always be the same for security. That bit is speculation, but we can't be sure on that, not unless we have a voater here that is familiar with the practice and thats not likely either.
Fair point that the language used would vary beyond the list that we're working with.
But, I would still have to point out at least a few very suspicious conversations that contain codewords from the list - which happen to be defined similarly by sources other than the 4chan source - which can be found in the email dumps.
With that in mind, looking at the suggestive art/photography found at CPP and on JimmyComet's IG respectively, there is just too much 'coincidence', to ignore this list, simply because it came from 4chan.

I've been following pizzagate for months now.
You are right. Actual 4chan pedos were helping out.
Pedos are actually quite divided. plain "child lovers" and those who like "hurt core"
anyways... Some code words have been around for a long time.
"Ping pong" was in urban dictionary since 2003.
