Maybe important context to add here, as discussed in https://github.com/ethereum/sourcify/issues/2180 The VeChain's EVM implementation gives random nonce's instead of incremental, hence this issue is encountered in the wild. Otherwise it's close to impossible to encounter this in an incremental nonce scheme.
