I filed a complaint with the federal agency that regulates banks/credit cards, and was subsequently contacted by a representative of the actual insurance company in Virginia; the insurance rep informed me that Chase's insurance administrator got it wrong, and that NY residents do indeed get primary coverage. I'm not sure if that's also true residents of Texas and the other listed states.

Also I'm a NY resident and got primary coverage when I had an issue in 2018.

Does anybody have a source for this rule? If not, I'd suggest deleting it from the wiki. But if there is a source, I hope someone will share it, as it would be a a pretty significant thing for Chase to entirely omit from the benefits guide.
