yes, this makes sense.. still i dont get it. tarocchi appears in the 16th century to designate this special kind of cards, distinct from normal playing cards. why should tarot cards be more fake then usual playing cards? or for that matter, why should gambling with them be more stupid?
i still think it is more reasonable to think that the connection is through "the deck with the fool card". remember that usual playing cards did not have the joker then.
i believe that playing cards came first.. but otherwise yes. the deck with the fool card or something like that. which you can play with, once you pass from normal history into tarot reality worldview, and make "the fool's cards". i tried it on people in my workshops and their response was good.
