Note that SourceNamespace column has value user-defined as the functions are searched within source of the package.

dependency <- find_dependencies("find_functions", envir = envir, in_envir = FALSE)
dependency %>% 
  slice_max(SourceRep, n = 10) %>%

Note that name df is often used to store object of type data.frame. df is also a name of F distribution density function from stats package. If you suspect that given function ought not to use a specific package, see the source code of function to check the context. To do so, one can execute find_dependencies function with add_info argument set to TRUE.
