Describe the problem

In the overview, right before the "Using widget constructors" section, you mention that using widget constructors is sometimes called "prop drilling" in other frameworks. However, at the end of the "Using widget constructors" section, you mention dependency injection. Is there a misuse of the term in the doc?

Please find the attached image. Shouldn’t it be referred to as “prop drilling” in this section instead of “dependency injection”?
