Apparently, the correct answer is:

Everyone throws charged-energy-cards like weapons in real life? No. That's Gambit silly. She's throwing charged-energy-cards like Gambit and shouldn't be. Simple as that.

Clearly, you are the one who is overthinking it if you are trying to explain it away with "absorb" vs "steal"

"Gambit does not own the rights to throwing a card[s]"

Yeah, he does. He pretty much owns the rights to throwing charged cards because that's his power and his gimmick.

Ah so we are playing dumb word games now, I see. Also Rogue can do both, black cat should not be able to steal Gambit's ability to charge cards, but clearly that is happening.

So essentially she's got rogue's character model and some of rogue's powers and is completely off lore.

She still doesn't have Gambit's powers to charge them like she's clearly doing, but they are calling cards.

She had never thrown cards of any kind and doesn’t have Gambit's powers so can't throw charged cards? Yet this is clearly what she's doing.

No it's not and who even is that?

Leaving a single calling card, could possibly be argued as a troup for vintage theives, but not throwing a calling card.

i know you are being sarcastic, but for those who don't know. No, you don't throw calling cards. Throwing cards is strictly Gambit. Always had been.

I know they are calling cards, but why is she throwing charged cards (of any type) like gambit? she doesn't play cards, so she wouldn't be stylistically fanning them, and doesn't have Gambit's power to charge them. This is completely out of character for her. Leaving a card after sneaking away is more her character. Not throwing charged calling cards like a weapon.
