this is wrong in the current implementation. This exception is not thrown when calling this method, but when starting the iteration (your test is hiding that by using iterator_to_array).
To properly perform the validation synchronously (which is easier for error handling and documentation), you would need to move the iteration to a private method (defining the generator) while the validation runs in the public method before calling that private method. We use that approach in symfony/cache for instance (where we are required to validate keys synchronously to respect PSR-6)

Should there also be assertions/test cases about the chunk size?
