The downside of more waster per GWH and/or greater enrichment requirement far outweighs that.
A power plant is only ever "done" when it finds itself on a far more valuable land than when it was built or when your politicians decide to go back to fossil fuels, something that should pretty much never happen.
That said, if it does need to happen, traditional 500MW PWR sites have been restored to green field condition.
SMRs are expected to by 1.5-2x as expensive as traditional nukes, it's borderline fraud at this point.
