Breaking down the Weather Controller into different functional modules is indeed a way to reduce its footprint.
Initially, when the Suyians built the Weather Controller, they used a flat structure, which meant that all the ancillary facilities of the Weather Controller were on the same plane, leading to a very large footprint.
However, if it were to be divided into different functional modules, stacking them could help reduce its overall footprint.
It's like having a dozen books laid out flat takes up a lot of space, but if you stack them together, it only takes up the space of one book.
Nonetheless, even so, the Weather Controller is still a huge, unimaginably massive entity.
The base that covers several hectares, the vast majority of which is occupied by the ancillary facilities and functional modules of the Weather Controller, and even if Chen Xin could dismantle it and organize it into the Mobile Base, it wouldn't fit with the current capacity of one Mobile Base.
