If this kernel ever gets big enough where this might matter, I'm sure they can change the design. Nothing is set in stone forever and for the foreseeable future it's unlikely to matter.

If there's enough demand for dynamic kernel modules they can be added later. That's not a feature that you have to build ypur whole kernel around from that start. Linux definitely didn't but it has it now so it's definitely that can revisited or even made an opt-in feature.
