Why is college (or maybe technical college) not a good translation of
that term?
 

According to my dictionaries Colleges are parts of universities, but also
institutions not offering degrees attended by secretaries or
hairdressers. According to this translation the Technische Hochschule
Augsburg consists of several colleges. But the faculty of general studies
covers the full university of applied sciences. All students can attend my
courses.

Your dictionary is very odd.  In common English usage some colleges are
parts of universities and some are not.  Some award degrees and some
don't.  Some offer PhD studies and some don't.  I don't know what
hairdressers have to so with it.

The harm
is very much limited.

That was indeed the harm I was referring to.

Do you disregard this mathematical proof

?

Yes, ...

Good to know.
