Remarks
            Due to an oversight in versions 5.0.0-5.0.8 of MongoDB, the count command, which estimatedDocumentCount uses
            in its implementation, was not included in v1 of the Stable API. If you are using the Stable API with
            estimatedDocumentCount, you must upgrade to server version 5.0.9+ or set strict: false when configuring
            ServerApi to avoid encountering errors.
