That's one of the points of the spherical tokamaks - they're MUCH smaller than the standard tokamaks (I can't remember the numbers but it's vastly smaller). That brings the cost way way down. The modern HTS magnets are also more powerful, even in the Tokamak systems (like CFSs) which again get the size way down - I think it's something like cubed size reduction for doubling magnet strength (?). You'd be right for something of the silly size of ITER.
