Sorry, no medieval about it. The earliest use of the word in the context of
removing and replacing dishes according to my copy of the OED is 1840.

D at MN! You are absolutely right, and that is a banner I march under . . . .
I scompletely misspoke with "medieval" and meant to type "historical". I
have been hitting other centuries of late and have lost my vocabulary and
perspective. Count me as one who does indeed avoid remove . . and has read
the sources everyone is quoting (except OED) over the years. I'm a course
guy.
