/**
 * Q: Why use KMongo's default codec over the official Mongodb Kotlin drivers' default codec or Kotlinx.serialization?
 * A: Having been using KMongo for several years at an enterprise level, having to switch to a new codec or
 *    rework all of our data to be handled via this new codec seemed like more effort than it was worth at the moment.
 *
 * Q: Isn't KMongo deprecated? Why depend on it just for this?
 * A: Yes it is deprecated, however, it is also assumed/expected that many users of KMongo will still be using
 *    KMongo's nicer / more intuitive query building tools / syntax. Until that query building logic is split off into its own project,
 *    we will still be pulling it in anyways. On top of this, I am just hopeful that the default codec that KMongo utilizes will also
 *    still be available to make transitions for others easier even if the base project is no longer available, fingers crossed!
