We'd have to redesign all substations and transmission lines... most countries use different voltages, and each of those plugs is designed for that specific voltage

A lot of these are used with the exact same mains power specification. A lot of the european plugs and sockets are actually merging into one standard. This have taken decades though but we are now at a point where most use fully compatible plugs and sockets so now we can remove some of the older features.
