Odd-even isn't clear when you only have all odd, or all even cards.

Yeah, that's my point.

One of the reasons that improving players like odd-even signals is that it gives them a chance to tell partner what they want again at trick 7 after telling them the first time at trick 1. Without the o/e signal, partner will frequently have to put together the trick 1 and trick 7 signal to figure out what to lead at trick 9.
