It still exists. See attachment.

However in https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pre-, this is how the
preposition "Pre" defined.

Perhaps as language evolves, it is better for user to add to dictionary and as
such if enough people add similar spelled words, it can be updated. After all
language is defined by people, contemporary to their times and not set in stone
for eternity. 
 Also , it would be a good idea to add a function or a feature to not just
populate suggestions from one dictionary set, but a "search alternative
spellings" button or next step to resolving this or similar situations.

While typing the following 3 words, the chrome browser  for me flagged this as
incorrect spelling. Now they have a feature called enhanced spell check. 
So under that, when i turned it ON, the below all shows as correct spelling.

Preapproved , Pre-Approved, Pre APPROVED _- ALL AUTO corrected to correct
spelling when i adjusted my browser to enhanced spell check.


So that is one feature i am suggesting to either borrow this feature ,
integrate with google enhanced spell check API ( Not sure how well it works for
other NON -English languages) ..
