So far, I thought that the Domain Events are exactly the events that you source from. Is there a reason to distinguish between Domain Events and Event Sourcing Events? In other words, when you want to do Event Sourcing, shouldn't Domain Events be stored in such a way that you can later construct Entities from them?

Hmm, okay, I think I got some insight to where we disagree. In any case, thanks for the write-up, I'm new to this pattern and it triggered some interesting thoughts.
