All it means is that the constructor does not delegate. (Which is the case unless you've made some calls between your constructors).

Constructor delegation is quite common in other and newer languages today, all it means is that the constructor is calling another constructor to prevent code duplication and maintain clean code.

Here is a simple tutorial on constructor delegating:
