Well no, because up until now the smaller SIMs were still of same thickness.
From full size SD to microSD there was a halving of thickness and a massive reduction in surface, with Mini SIM to Micro SIM to Nano SIM there's not. There's ten times that much free space hanging about even inside the thinnest phones.

You cant make things smaller without making the insides smaller. It makes sense.

Yes you can, there's tons of free space in there that's not being used. Not to mention the SIM card tray probably takes more space than a larger sized SIM card.

Fraid that's not how it works.
Handset makers want to fit stuff into a black rectangle with rounded corners. There's tons of air space in these things.
