it's true that capitalism is always impure. But I don't see why the
impurities are necessary to capitalism. At least Marx didn't think so.

But Luxemburg did, and maybe she was right that external markets were
needed.
It might also be argued that without families to reproduce labor-power
capitalism would collapse.
FWIW, a pure capitalism is very scary. It would involve using markets
and capitalist-controlled factories to organize human reproduction,
among other things.
