If it's so much better to build n smaller plants instead of one bigger it would still be much better to build them all in one location instead of distributed over n locations. Electricity transmission over long distances is not free, but it's surely not so expensive/inefficient that you need those plants to be distributed over 16 independent sites for the UK. All those claimed learning benefits also apply to operation/maintenance and benefits of experience will transmit much better inside of a big facility than from one site to another. You only need to make sure that you don't take advantage of economies of scale that should better not be taken advantage of.
