Now, on deseralization, sets values of "new fields" (those added to class AFTER a serialization) to defaults one. (So, if we have make a class with 3 fields, "a", "b" and "c", and we at a later stage adds "d", if serialiezed data contains only "a" "b" & "c", deseralziation will fill the value of "d" with its default value (if it has one)
