We did indeed explore that. However, as noted in https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/issues/486#issuecomment-282044172, the dependency-crawling is only a small aspect of the overall behavior change that makes using preload a bad fit. Notably, this is not a preload in the network fetching sense, and does not involve the preload cache; it preloads into the module map, which is very different.
