  --- BEGIN ISSUE ---
  Stop using ABC in Serializer
  AbstractSerializer is currently written as an abstract base class. I don't think it is needed to support ABC.
  
  --- END ISSUE ---

  39         ``value`` argument. String values are treated like scalars. If the
  40         ``value`` argument is ``None``, the type of the restored value will
  41         typically be a numpy array but can depend on the particular subclass
  42         implementation.

  47                 ``None`` is only supported by deserializers.
