OoO cores have load stalls too after preemptions. Even something like a Apple M core basically has to stall if the load has to go out to the memory controller. The goal is to move far enough ahead in the stream that you can at least issue the next load, and advaned loads lets you do that. Some Intel cores will occasionally speculatively predict zero for a load, but AFAIK that got turned off as part of the Spectre mitigations.
