I am a purist, as well. My feeling is that I cannot knock others for doing what they are doing. To each his/her own! But again, where do you draw the line?
So, what is a purist exactly?

If you are somewhat of a purist, then you wouldn't use Luminar 4. To practice with it to see how it looks is one thing, I would never alter a photograph that I took.
I guess that throws black and white out the window.

Jim, I agree that the ASA 400 works best. The skin tones of the handsome dude look good on the ASA 400 if it was taken late in the afternoon.

The camera has no adjustments, how did you change the Depth of Field? What on your camera does change when you use different ISOs. It has been nearly a lifetime since I've used a "toy" type camera with no meter or any adjustments. Have I forgotten something? I do remember finding my personal calibrated ASA per some Zone System stuff with Plus-x and Tri-x films.
This camera has zone focusing that I can adjust 3 6 15 feet and auto exposure.. the only other thing I can adjust is the I so, oh, and multiple exposures . I think someone around here could give you a better answer about Iso, I can only presume that tricking the camera into thinking it has a more light sensitive film in it, t, he autonactic exposure mechanism let's in less light thereby offering more saturated color., I think. All I know for sure is that I prefer shooting this particular film fujicolor 200 at 400.

I recently began using the LOMO LC-A+ with Fujicolor 200 and was disappointed with the results. The camera is a point and shoot so shutter speed and aperture adjustments were not an option. I changed the ASA to 400, took two shots of the same subject, developed the film at home, as usual, no compensation for pushing the film. Here are a few samples of the unedited, other than scanning and printing. The first picture is at 200. The handsome dude, is me, in case you were wondering. I get the impression that at 200 ISO for this camera, it overexposes consistently. I prefer 400. I do make some final adjustments in PS. Not earth-shattering information but an easy fix for me.

Interesting thread.
I used to process all kinds of film back in the day.
My first guess is the processing temperature was too high.
That can increase the grain size.

Thought that but I'm right at temperature.. I think it might be overxpouser or maybe my agitation during processing is too agressive

I shoot digital as well as film. I'm retired, plenty of time on my hands, plus I like the challange and process film offers

I've looked at that ,other scans are fine. Only the fujicolor 200. Im starting to think the noise is from overxpouser, camera meter error

As the basis for a discussion, post and store one or a few of the scanned files so we can see what you're seeing.
using fujifilm fujicolor 200. I just started developing color film at home. I'v been photographing for over 50 years, I've done mostly black and white. I've never experienced this noise or grain with such a slow iso. I have not seen this with other color films I've developed, only this film and this camera. I see these, I two pics are overexposed, I'm using the cameras meter.
