It’s important to be solving an actual problem. Modelling a deck of cards is probably not the problem — what are we actually solving? Building a new hearts.exe? Rendering a custom deck for a laser cutter? Tracking casino fraud?

Those would be better questions which could start off with a discussion about the general solution, followed by a quick “how would you model the cards part of this?” component.
