Property rights might not directly translate over, and there may be some need for new acquisitions, but it's still (likely) a much easier sell. It's a bigger step to do something once than to do it in a slightly different way. I don't mean to trivialize the "swapping" process. There would be significant political and capital costs with any kind of "swap". But I think those are smaller hurdles than getting the land rights and processing the land.
