Package: et131x-source The claim that modprobing the module unconditionally for the sake of usability is not really strong. The best thing for a user is automatic installation of this module via the conglomerate module packages, along with the linux-image package. In this case it would be ridiculous to have every out of tree driver that is part of the conglomerate to modprobe itself.
Another use case is installation of module binary package in a live debian cd chroot, automatic modprobe of module makes no sense in the build chroot. Unconditional modprobe of out of tree kernel drivers does not scale to all possible uses of the module source package, so I could only plead with you that you could change your mind about this cheap, one-time executed, small piece of code.
