I love this post, and I love how many times any form of the word etymology has been used. I do love the origin of words and yet had never looked this one up in regards to its spelling. I have always used -re. Not sure if I was just being a drama snob or not, but when asked for justification I used the spelling for "theatrical" as a reference point. Seeing that it goes back to Greek etymology (which makes sense) I like it even further.
