>>>I am sorry but I simply don't see how using the word "contaminated" is reflecting reality.

Yes. Right or wrong, "contamination" and "contaminatant" are the industry terms, and well known to those who live in grain country or have worked in the seed industry.
A quick Google for "seed cleaning" AND (contamination OR contaminant) should resolve the question beyond a doubt and prevent further "contamination" of BEE-L with what is becoming a subjective and semantic argument :)
