Actually this is not as bad as it sounds. Since you're constructing the hardware header anyway, it may turn out to be easier to tack on the Ethernet header while you're at it. Please note that the hardware cache is not the same as the neighbour cache. Just because you lose the hardware cache doesn't mean that you'd lose the neighbour (ARP) cache. However, this would mean that you'd no longer have an Ethernet device which is both good and bad.
