That is because you cannot remove elements from the table while

The order is already undefined with pairs and you are allowed to remove (or as the manual says 'clear') or modify elements during an iteration, what is not defined is to add new elements. The manual makes no special case for using table.remove.


Having said that I have to wonder why the OP would want to remove the last index rather than the index which is the current iteration, this seems like a typo.
