If they had just said greater than three dimensional cube, I would be ok.

To repeat: Be careful: The term "hypercube" comprises all dimensions, not
just dimensions greater than three. A cube is a type of hypercube. A
square is a type of hypercube.

It is neither technically correct nor pedagogically useful to restrict the
term to D>3.
