$this->aggregateVersion++;

Hello everyone.
Whether the aggregateVersion should be incremented if $applyMethodExists is false in apply() method, during reconstituteFromEvents()? (take a look at the above reference)

In the code, we are trying to make the check described below,, in order to additionally avoid, for example, an erroneous substitution of "productId" instead of "categoryId" in the "CategoryAggregate" or vice versa.

$aggregate = call_user_func([$this->getAggregateClass(), 'retrieve'], $aggregateRootId);
if ($aggregate->getAggregateVersion() === 0) {
    throw ValidationException::notFoundAggregate($aggregateRootId);
}

Now aggregateVersion depends on the number of events associated with "aggregateId" regardless of whether these events are related to the aggregate itself. Therefore, this check cannot take effect. I would like to know your opinions.
