I think if you have complete aggregates within other aggregates then it's
fine if the sub aggregates are not fully loaded on save, as they are
aggregates themselves, and can validate themselves.

 it may also be ok to deal with them by id only, though I think that
decision should be based on ORM and other things like CQRS (maybe the
nested aggregate isn't really even in the same database?).
