Many external packages don't (require) preloaded packages (some preloaded packages don't or used to not export a (provide), in fact), which may cause issues if these packages aren't preloaded anymore. Autoloading should fix that. This idea won't work anyway without adding the relevant symbols to loaddefs.el.
