      The stdlib URI can serialize itself back to a string:

      irb(main):002:0> URI.parse('http://foo.bar')
      => #<URI::HTTP http://foo.bar>
      irb(main):003:0> URI.parse('http://foo.bar').to_s
      => "http://foo.bar"
      

      MongoDB URIs do not support this functionality:

      irb(main):001:0> Mongo::URI.new('mongodb://foo.bar')
      => #<Mongo::URI:0x00005612fe09f620 @string="mongodb://foo.bar", @options={}, @servers=["foo.bar"], @user=nil, @password=nil, @uri_options={}>
      irb(main):002:0> Mongo::URI.new('mongodb://foo.bar').to_s
      => "#<Mongo::URI:0x00005612fe0a1ec0>"
      

      This makes it impossible to take a URI string, parse it into a URI, modify the URI and serialize the result out to a string to be used as a URI later.
