You can use eGates in the UK, same as me as a British citizen (as long as your passport's new enough, probably all of them by now) - that covers it doesn't it? Otherwise I'm not clear what 'pre-clearance' is skipping? Painless for me into Canada too.

It saves you the hassle of going through customs when you land at your destination.

No, they mean we actually clear US customs in Canada as non-US citizens.
