While it's possible, I don't think it's likely because with preload that was set too high, less of the full stroke than usual would have been used so if anything I'd imagine there would be less wear. That said, I don't actually know what would happen in this case so that is just my armchair mechanic opinion.

That said, knowing how they screwed up the rear suspension, I'm concerned they may have done the same with the front which I didn't check today. While I find the fronts extremely comfortable, that doesn't necessarily mean they're right. In this case, I'm wondering if the reason it's bouncy and uncomfortable may be because the front preload is also set wrong and so the front and rear still aren't working together correctly yet. I did think to take a picture of the front coils when I was working on my brakes a few weeks ago but it's hard to tell in this case because they don't have a helper spring:
