I was under the impression that the process by which the "Foundation [asks] us to remove it on sight" is a WP:OFFICE action.

No, the Foundation can intervene whenever they see fit. Office actions are only for when, for whatever reason, the Foundation people can't do it themselves or aren't in the best position to do so, and so they delegate.
This seems to be in direct contradiction with what David Gerard just wrote. Frankly, I'm under the impression that David's got it right. Seems like OFFICE is used when the Foundation wants it to be very clear and public that it was indeed a mandate from the Foundation. There are good reasons to want to accomplish things with a lower profile.
