hmm, I don't like eat in this case

 D    $foo.take    $foo.grab    $foo.horde



s/horde/hoard/



If I'd written that, I'd claim that as deliberate.

Though it does leave a problem with "grab" as a singular noun,


Why? Horde is a noun, hoard is a verb like all the other entries in the table. (Some have dual use, like hoard does, as nouns, but...)
