One thing to consider is that River is doing marshalling,
which apparently is slightly different from serialization,
In my book, they are both the same: convert an object to an untyped data (byte/word/whatever) stream and back, restoring the original functionality of the serialized/marshalled object.
but the actual difference is not clear to me. I don't know if that is important.

It looks like River isn't spelling these out clearly enough.
