Has anything changed since
corporate-wage-slave 's advice of 15 December 2018? Should I just apply for another ESTA and hope it clears in time?
That was in a different context where ESTAs were being cancelled - whereas you used the ESTA quite recently, albeit on pre-clearance. It probably just means the autoamatic looping software isn't finding you for some reason. If your ESTA is valid according to the CBP's online checker, I would print that out and bring it to the airport.
