That would ruin the economics of EUV. A mask set costs millions of dollars and for chip designers it is the generally the highest most expensive part of the manufacturing process and must be amortized over as many units as possible.
The machines that create the masks are also not very fast. A mask is created by firing an electron beam which is a sequential process.
If you were limited to one wafer per mask then not only would each chip cost tens of thousands of dollars you would also only be able to produce a single digit amount of wafers per year.
