The inductance of a linear loading wire goes up as the frequency
increases. It acts similarly to a transmission line. You typically
would like the inductance to go down (with increasing frequency), or
worst case stay the same.
A coil's inductance doesn't significantly change with frequency,
although of course it's reactance does.

<snip> Any linear loading scheme has
the drawback that the effective loading inductance is directly
proportional to frequency; exactly what you don't want.
