They're also doing some work to Aquazoid. It looks like they're doing some foundation work and redoing the stairs (or at least part of them).
100ft tall Aquazoid animatronic that spits water at guests.
It closed last year do to structural problems with the tower and stairs. Till we see more evidence I would bet that is all that we see done.

Close. You forgot the part that it will be coin op and the water will be 32.3 degrees.
I noticed last year one of the beams on the support structure of the main tower had been replaced by a steel beam. While it was most likely just to replace that specific beam, I wonder if it was a test to replace more beams on the older slide structures in the park.

Weight?
The heavier the the platform, the more reinforcement it needs. The more reinforcement it gets also makes it heavier.
I imagine it is a massive expense to make a platform as you describe.

Hence the expense portion of why not - but I see that many of the newer rides use steel and concrete so it could have been due to cost at the time and aesthetics?
I assume a renovated (maybe renamed?) existing attraction counts towards SEAS plan to introduce at least one new attraction for "almost every park" annually.
I'd like to see a new ride theme that begins working towards a more cohesive overall theme. I still think this should be rebranded to match Tampa.
After some deep investigative journalism, I've discovered why they're retooling Aquazoid.
