HSTS is also pre-loaded, you can pre-load an entire apex domain (such as ycombinator.com) or indeed an entire TLD (.dev is pre-loaded).

And browsers are starting to offer HTTPS-by-default mode where the browser just interprets HTTP as HTTPS (in links, in bookmarks, almost everywhere) and if the HTTPS server won't accept the connection you get a full-page interstitial where you can choose to let it go for one site that doesn't have HTTPS if you're comfortable with that.
