Sorry, yes the second point wasn't really directed at you - I could have
been clearer

I'm not sure, on re-reading, whether the OP wants to work with discontiguous
selections or not,

You're right. It's Delete that removes only the contents. As for the
second
point, I wasn't refering to discontinuous sections. Just different tables:
create a table, then some paragraphs, then another table. Select both
tables
and all that's between them. Now Delete.

I beg to differ on that. Cut deletes a table if the whole table (and
nothing
else) is selected.

Neither Cut nor Delete - nor any other single action - deletes tables in
discontiguous selections

Cut deletes the entire table if the selection also includes at least
one
character outside the table. So if you select all the tables plus the
intervening matter, delete zaps the lot.

No. Cut only cuts the data in the table.
It does not delete the table.
