> It's the statistical foundation upon which card counting works. Exactly, so, if counting cards if forbidden (I'm not arguing if that is right or not), then having that statistical foundation isn't useful. As a different comment suggested, reshuffling at a fixed point (say, after one third of the cards have been dealt) should solve the problem in practice, also preventing the house to use counting in a meaningful way.
