I'm not - you're the one claiming __wakeup() is a constructor, but it's
opposite, __sleep() is not a destructor.

Then __wakeup() does NOT inherently involve creation of an object.

Not in other languages. It builds from an already existing object where
the constructor has been called.

Constructors are constructors, and the destructor is a destructor. No
asymmetry there. Except in PHP.
