[petsc-dev] Is "sieve" a deprecated term?

I am reading some of the DMPlex docs and would like to take the opportunity
to clean up things I notice. There are several places in the man pages and
source that "sieve" is mentioned. As far as I know this is
- the name of the project that preceded DMPlex
- a term from category theory

Thus, is it safe to remove all mention of this term from the documentation?
