Re: 4-color KEM or Copaq like decks

Although I can see the advantages, the disadvantage is HUGE. When some people deal I can tell if the card is red or black. If I saw four blues go out when I have two diamonds in my hand then I'm going to know my outs... not so if they are just red or black.
I could probably use my wedding band for a shiner while dealing to know the suits of everyone's hand, although I wouldn't know the ranks.

I hear this line alot about why 4-color decks are bad, and I think it's total bunk. By that logic, we should only use an all-black deck with no paint and no pips.
If you have a dealer exposing cards, that needs to be fixed no matter what type of deck you're using.
Lots of people are traditionalists, so I understand why one wouldn't like a 4-color deck, but logically it makes no sense.
