AR or AP would work in removing/dissolving the gold and (or) silver after this point. Whichever method you decide to use, will work.
I can't say anything about your other advices, other than that you don't need to remove the glue.
But once you are advising that AR and AP will dissolve silver, I get doubts. Sorry, but I think you should be more careful giving advices. It should be more clear, what you are assuming, what you know from reading (source) and what you know by experience.

Yes, at least akku-cheks have pure gold traces, no evidence of base metals. Scraping isn't a good idea, I tried. You need more than 2000 pieces to get a gramm of gold. How many hours do you want to work for 30$....60h? 120h? - Or only one? If you scrape, you need to remove the glue or you will be forced to incinerate.
If anyone likes to add something new, then examine the grey strips. There has not been posted a lot about contents and processes for those.
