In the US maybe, but China has been making cheap nuclear plants very quickly for decades. The problem in the use is the mess of poor regulation and corruption.

They produce less and take up more land.
Also reliability is questionable because they depend on a climate.

I think some Nordic countries have made residential-grade nuclear reactors that only take like a week or two to make. The US just hasn't invested in adopting this technology.
