The dependency on ConstructionBase serves to provide a few convenience methods for users of packages like Accessors; it doesn't provide any functionality used directly by Legolas. This makes it a perfect candidate for a package extension.

Package extensions are new in Julia 1.9, and Legolas currently supports Julia 1.6. That means that we can't fully remove ConstructionBase as a direct dependency yet, but we can restructure things to make that as easy as possible once we drop support for earlier Julia versions.
