The footprint of a DIMM slot is not just the area the slot itself takes. DIMMs force you to do a lot of length-matching, which takes a lot of PCB space (and layers). The actual footprint of the DIMMs also includes all the space between the slots and the CPU. Especially LPCAMM2 does this inside the connector, and you can place the connector as close as you can without causing clearance issues.
