How is it impromptu if it requires a different coloured card?

1) Because I always carry a different card with me;
2) Because if you have a different card or deck you can do it anytime (I strongly suggest everyone to take at least two different decks with them, always);
3) Because you don't need a setup, the different card doesn't have to start off in your pocket, it could really start off anywhere and so could every other card;
4) Because if you see the term 'impromptu' as "everywhere and anytime", there is no such thing as an impromptu trick apart from body tricks that require absolutely nothing else, and I don't agree with that. It is impromptu as long as you can do it everywhere at anytime if you have the required, normal (clean/ungimmicked) props to begin with.. and of course it still isn't really "everywhere" and "at anytime" then.

The literal meaning of impromptu is like this: "when asked".
(you know the word "prompt", right?)
so if somebody asks you to do a trick, impromptu tricks are the tricks you can show
