This is well for Angels. But demons are more unfortunate in their oversight, and if they catch the big guy on a bad day they get a bad word. What about the unfortunate demon of Disestablismentarianism? Or... The demon of stuck chariot wheels? Or the demon of thrown horseshoes? or of tangled togas? The book example was stale bong water, but surely there were some in the past equally unfortunate.

I would imagine they haunt reenactments and historians. Maybe this is why we think bone corsets and hoop skirts are so bad? The remaining demons take every possible chance to inflict their pain. Expanding their word philosophically is a good idea, but sometimes difficult.
