"On the other hand, Chapter 5 also advices to prefer factory methods over exposing constructors. I tried that few times, but I have a feeling that this feels a bit unnatural and as such I cannot recommend code like: " [...factory sample...]

It's not only unnatural, a static factory hides the real exception point into the stacktrace.
