I believe this can be fixed by any mod, that is using the base game loaders and not their own version, by adding a next_upgrade property to them.
A base game fix would be better since then a) it fixes it for everyone using them, and b) it can be used in scenarios which use loaders without any mods. Breakage seems pretty minimal for a minor change on something that isn't normally available.

Not a bug.
If you would try to set next_upgrade on the loader so it upgrades to fast-loader, and next_upgrade on fast-loader so it upgrades to express-loader you would notice that the game complains that the next_upgrade must not be hidden, while all 3 types of loaders are hidden. To make it fast replacable they would have to be not hidden. This is not going to happen and it is not a bug.
