Giving the clones a chip instantly robs them of any agency they could have had as individuals. Truly one of the worst things to come out of The Clone Wars show.

It’s also quite bizarre from a motivation angle, since there are so many ways in which the clones could have turned against the Jedi. For example, Palpatine could reveal that Yoda and the Jedi are inherently mistrustful of the clones and will intend to take over their peacekeeping duties once the war is over, relegating the clones to ignoble retirement or outright termination once their purpose has been fulfilled. Then the impetus of the clones to destroy the Jedi at the end of the war could grow organically from within their ranks, nurtured by the machinations of Palpatine.
