There are non-statistical methods for training neural nets (no backprop) so 'applied computational statistics' really wouldn't capture it. Beyond that what is wrong with the term deep learning? I can at least understand objections to the use of the term AI (even though it was originally used to refer to narrow AI but was appropriated by hollywood) but deep learning seems like a fine term to me.
