A term is a term. We've lived with worse, like "master-slave" and "male/female connector". As long as it's clear what it does and isn't vague like "dependency injection".

What is the problem with male/female connector ? What is the generalized replacement words ?

Nothing wrong. Nor is there anything wrong with "low code". Just the visual of putting a male into a female is a little crude.

Crude? The same terminology used to describe plant morphology? Don't project your own views please

dependency injection is specific enough for me. it's just saying that anything a class depends on is provided to the class (injected) rather than created by the class itself.
