Harder to do. As one commenter on Reddit pointed out, the problem is that you need nuclear power of some kind beyond Jupiter. Falcon heavy isn't nuke-rated and it may be a challenge to get it there.
So that leaves F9's, which are probably more likely to get nuke-rated eventually, or sending up your deep probe on a FH and rendezvous with a separately launched nuke-generator.
