Not recreated and not resacrificed, but re-presented; made present (to us) again, not done over again. Huge difference.

I have to agree with you that the shift in language cannot hide the fact that there is a claim that the sacrifice is somehow re-enacted during the Mass. The Church is adamant that the Mass is not just a mere memorial, but rather a mystical (unsympathetic critics would say magical) event.
