There were a number of issues going on with the naming, I'm not convinced that it indicates much of significance on a technical level.
A last thought, Yoshio Sugino stated that when he trained with Ueshiba in the early 1930's the art was callled "Daito-ryu Aiki-jutsu".

Also, some thoughts from another of Hisa's direct students:

Quote:
Kobayashi Kiyohiro: Yes, as I said before, Hisa Sensei started to learn from Ueshiba Sensei and he later became a student of Takeda Sensei. There is no incompatibility. Whether they are Ueshiba's or Takeda's techniques, there is no profound disagreement because very naturally, Daito-ryu techniques evolve into Aikido techniques.
Best,

Chris
