You have a point here labug.

It's definitely over the top. Dare I say a sledge hammer to crack a nut?

However, SM34 cannot allow his adulterous wife to spend their money on gifts for her adultery partner's children. Nor can he allow gifts that OM purchased to be in their house. His wife cannot possibly respect him if he allows this.

He can still remove them, calmly, silently and unflappably - and in my mind he should.

I found different things connected to my wife's affair in our house. To be honest, I felt they were just as offensive as SS memorabilia would have been had I been Jewish. It's an extreme example but exactly how I felt at the time and probably how SM34 feels right now.
