Modelling domain events is useful for describing the problem your trying to solve with the domain experts, and it should probably be left in the documentation when planning a solution.

For actually implementing a system that provides an audit trail of long-lived state machines, you're probably better off using something like Temporal.io/durable functions which uses event sourcing internally for their persistence, and has a programming model which forces you to think about deduplication/idempotency by adding different constraints for the code that orchestrates the functionality (workflows), vs the code that actually interacts with the real world (activities)
