There are pros and cons.

Pro, you can get tighter timings more easily.

Con, while you can upgrade--you're going to have to toss your entire old CAMM module and entirely replace it. E.g. you have 16GB of RAM, you can no longer keep a DIMM and just partially-upgrade to 32GB or 24GB. Which is more ewaste. Because CAMM is a dual channel solution, so to have two CAMM pads you're need a sever-class quad-channel setup.
I'm pretty sure the last time I employed this memory upgrade strategy was during the Bush administration. It's always been complete kits ever since. Modern memory is incredibly sensitive to matched sets if you want to squeeze every last ounce of performance out of it.
