I have not problem with the term "Pure DC" although it doesn't mean what
you typed above. It means "DC without ripple" or DC with no AC
component. 'DC' by itself means what you typed above.

"High frequency pure DC" is an oxymoron. If there is any frequency
component at all, then the DC is not pure.
