You have encountered one of the standard SCA errors. "Remove" is a
post-period term for a subcourse--a dish in a course removed before the
rest of the course, or the dish that replaces it. Someone in the SCA at
some time in the past mistakenly thought it was a period term for
course, and since people in the SCA like to show off how knowledgeable
they are and are often not very careful about making sure that what they
know is true, the idea spread.
"Course" is indeed the period English term.
