DDs are a ship class that survives through day battle mostly via their high evasion stat, which scales directly with ship level. It's no wonder the second remodels are being given out at at least moderate level requirements, otherwise you could end up with ships like Yukikaze Kai and Shimakaze Kai, who still need quite a bit of leveling after being remodelled to be truly worth it.
