I don't know why a library has to be necessarily small in size. Having micro packages that only do one tiny thing would only lead to a npm-like hellscape, and Serde is the most complete option in the Rust ecosystem.
In my opinion it's better to have simple interfaces for complex features, rather than simple interfaces for simple features. You could code those yourself.
