      Use Case

      Currently the deserializer will look for a toObject method defined on the Decimal128 prototype and call it after decoding a Decimal128 BSON value. We should consider if this inconsistent transformation feature is worth maintaining vs users specifying a cursor.map function.

      User Impact

      Acceptance Criteria

      Implementation Requirements

      • Remove the logic that looks for a toObject function on the prototype of Decimal128.

      Testing Requirements

      • Change the test that asserts this transform behavior to one that would fail if the feature were to be added back.

      Documentation Requirements

      • Note the change in the major release.
        • NOTE: There is nothing we can annotate in our API docs to deprecate this behavior. Ensure we make note of the change in the migration guide / major version changes docs.
