      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      I have a public class `Entity` and an entity that inherits from that called `MongoEntity`.

      The MongoEntity is an implementation detail of the repository, so it is used only internally and is not exposed outside.

      e.g. something like this:

       

      class Entity {}
      class MongoEntity : Entity {}
      public class Repository{
         private IMongoCollection<MongoEntity> collection;
         
         public IQueryable<Entity> Entities {
             get => collection.AsQueryable();
         }
      }
      

      Until 2.18.0 it works fine, but it breaks with 2.19.0:

      I get the following exception in my sample:

      System.ArgumentException: 'ValueType 'ConsoleApp4.Program+MongoEntity' of parameterSerializer does not match parameter type 'ConsoleApp4.Program+Entity'. (Parameter 'parameterSerializer')'

      In my real application I get the following error:

      System.InvalidCastException: 'Unable to cast object of type 'MongoDB.Bson.Serialization.BsonClassMapSerializer`1[Notifo.Identity.MongoDb.MongoDbUser]' to type 'MongoDB.Bson.Serialization.IBsonSerializer`1[Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity.IdentityUser]'.'

      I was not able to reproduce this exception in my sample, but I guess it is the same root issue.

      My very little example is attached.
