Downloading the Laravel each time when creating the project?

In the console I will type below.

Composer create-project laravel/laravel "MyLocation" --prefer-dist

This will start downloading everything.

Question: Can't we copy the framework from previous created project ? Is that necessary every time to download everything from scratch ?
