You have provided some very clear definitions.
Big problem is that most persons that use the term DNC provide very little "context" information to clarify what they are talking about. I suspect this results from a lack of knowledge of the possible meanings of DNC, and that clairification is needed.
I have tended away from using the term DNC by itself. I like the term "drip feed" because it quite clearly identfies the subject. When I use "drip feed" there is usually enough "context" that indicates I am talking about data transfer, and not lubrication or coolant.
