I didn't mean to imply that the Virain Tarot couldn't be done.
But a fine line must be walked. If someone were to pick up a
Virian Tarot deck and not know anything about memetics, it could
be quite possible for said person to use it much as a Tarot deck
is used if the resemblance to too close. The first step to
distancing the idea from Tarot is probably to stop calling the
idea Virian Tarot. At the same time, if you retain none of the
Tarot concepts (i.e., "reading" the cards), there is the risk
that the deck would become a fancy set of flashcards.
