How difficult would it be to increase the build plate size of a 0.2R1 from 120 to something larger like 200mm? I would be OK keeping the 120mm Z-axis print height

If you can find the extrusions and rails then sure go for it. There may be a direct upgrade path to a Salad Fork or Micron (scaled down versions of the bigger Voron printers built with 1515 frames). Also of note, the Tiny-T is a scaled down Trident that uses 2020 frames.

I built a 180x180x250mm Trident as my secondary printer so it could use the Prusa Mini satin PEI. In hindsight, I wish I had made it a little shorter because it is a bit top-heavy at high accelerations. The bed size is perfect for most functional prints I need. Though I still plan to pick up a v0 at some point for the absurdly small footprint of the machine.
