When more 2's, 3's and 7's are removed than 4's and 5's from the low card group you will be over betting your advantage. The distribution of these advantage distributions around the true count will form a bell curve. A wider bell curve affects all the BJ stats in a negative way. Having more 4's, 5's and 6's in the deck really hurt your chances as these cards make the dealer stiff hands. The 5 is the worst. The flip side is the dealer getting a 5 or 6 or even 4 up in a high count leads to lots of double and split opportunities that also tend to have better outcomes which favor the player.
Of course you are talking about an unbalanced system so I am not sure how useful this information is to you.
