On the other hand, it is very obvious that one could disassemble the PHB into sets of reference cards, specially the powers, feats, and racial profiles. Well, drop the 'reference', just keep the 'cards'...
It's not hard to imagine a DD4 card-based game combining features of board games (the battle mat and the minis), CCGs and roleplaying proper. I, for one, would love to see this happening. Just add a board game style regional map for moving the PCs group around and locating the encounters and voilą, there's a full toolkit for game management.

Drop the 'CCG' part (card games =/= CCGs, & there have been board games that have had zillions of cards in them) & we're in agreement. 
P.S. I still believe 4e to very much be an RPG, though, as is.
