All cattle are asterisk.
The only thing pure about them are they are from auroch.
Even they are asterisk as they come from something not auroch.
Really the only reason to worry about purity is if parents are verified with DNA because when the genomics industry becomes useful, one would like to be able to introgression markers.
But of course they won't allow that. It's much more important to reduce the gene pool now for stuff that isn't yet conclusive or causal.
