Many sites can be included as HSTS only in Chrome itself, so it wouldn't be entirely useless.

Anyone can preload their domain in Chrome, Firefox and others that share the preload list. I'm not sure what vulnerabilities are left after your site has been preloaded.
The only vulnerability left would be, as mentioned above, a client installing a browser that doesn't support HSTS.
If your attack relies on getting the user to install your own browser, don't waste your time with a simple HSTS bypass.
