When we calculate the "wants" and "haves" for a pack, we
only add the objects in the boundary commits as preferred
bases. However, we know that every object reachable from the
"haves" could be a preferred base.

We probably don't want to add these to our preferred base
list, because they would clog the delta-search window.
However, there is no reason we cannot reuse an on-disk delta
against such a deep "have" base, avoiding the delta search
for that object altogether.
