This is not the contract of `canEqual`. Given that this class is not final
this method should define which objects can be equal to this type. So in this
case it would be `obj instanceOf ListSerializer`. Furthermore the check has to
be incorporated into the `equals` method where you check `((ListSerializer)
obj).canEqual(this))`. Otherwise the symmetry of equals is violated.
