Yes. And it also doesn’t need to handle 40+ AMPs on input, with associated large bus bars, large input wires, etc.
Extra insulation is likely only a mm or two, those other components are big and heavy, and have to be.
It’s the same reason inverters have been moving away from 12v to 48v. Larger currents require physically larger and heavier parts in a difficult to manage way. Larger voltages don’t start being problematic until either > 48v or >1000v (depending on the power band).
