But that's literally not what jamming is. The word "jamming" already is an attack in computer science/engineering: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_jamming
I think it's very confusing to give another unrelated attack in computer science the same name.

There's a big overlap there. In both cases you are filling up bandwidth with the specific purpose of preventing other people using that bandwidth. It's basically the same thing with a different adjective (channel vs radio). I don't understand what you would see as problematic there.
