   True. As both the tables share the same path, running remove orphan files on 
one table can clean up the live files of another table. 
   
   I don't think we have a fix for this based on the current remove orphan 
files design.   
   
   For Nessie Catalog, I am using UUID for the table path to avoid this 
problem. Maybe we need to enforce this to all the catalogs (I can work on this 
once people agree to this change)
   
   As a workaround, when you create a new table (you can specify the new table 
location in the create table statement or table properties)
