I would disagree whole heartedly. Suit != Colour

Not only do the definitions below (curtesy of 
http://www.hyperdictionary.com) show that color has more definitions 
than suit, but the relevant entry for suit defines it as:

    [n]  playing <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/playing>
    card <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/card> in
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/in> any
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/any> of
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/of> four
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/four> sets
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/sets> of
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/of> 13 cards
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/cards> in
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/in> a
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/a> pack
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/pack>; each
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/each> set
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/set> has
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/has> its
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/its> own
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/own> symbol
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/symbol> and
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/and> color
    <http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/color>;

which means that Suit = Colour + Symbol

And here is another example of colour being used in gaming... "Using the 
crayon, color a line between your two stations"

The JCD set is a perfectly playable set using only Black ink. As it 
turns out it uses Symbol as its way of identifying each Suit. There is 
no reason why someone couldn't make a set where each Suit is 
distingushed only by Colour, but to change the terminology to only 
Symbol, or only Colour would remove these possibilities.

As well, I believe it was you who came up with the idea of the stack and 
having customizable stacks with your own suit. If we switched to only 
colour then you would have to be puce or aquamarine instead of your "2x2 
waffle or a Raccoon's Paw"
