I am not sure about this. It does not add any functionality to zend-mvc.

If an end-user wants to use the LazyControllerAbstractFactory in his application, then zend-serializer is required – but only there.
Therefore the hint / suggestion in the Composer file for this soft dependency.

zend-mvc/src/Controller/LazyControllerAbstractFactory.php

Line 21 in fe43713

use Zend\Serializer\AdapterPluginManager as SerializerAdapterManager;

At the moment we have no reference or guide for the Composer file, but we use the suggest section since the introduction of Composer.

[Xerkus]

Neither use statement or magic ::class constant require presence or existence of the referenced class. It is just a glorified string literal. I would argue this use case does not create soft dependency.

Controller requiring serializer adapter plugin manager as dependency would need to declare zend-serializer as a dependency on the other hand.

You are right! The factory doesn't use the serializer for running.
