Why use Remove? It's unfamiliar to more oldtimers
For a number of systems, it's faster if you're just pulling off
fields or values.* Also it's the same form if the list is @FM, @VM,
@SM or @TM separated, so there's no need to do one ore more RAISE()s.
And for folks that started with uv or udt, instead of one of the more
Pick-like flavors, using SELECT on a non-file variable is very
unfamiliar and counter intuitive.

*If you're really trying to save clock cycles, do a benchmark,
sometimes the REMOVE statement is slower than the REMOVE() function.
