Uranium 235 literally has a half life of 703.8 million years

Uhhhh yes and no. Half-life is the amount of time it takes to degrade to half its original amount. So it's halfway there in terms of mass! But the relationship isn't linear. You have to take another half-life. You keep on halving the amount, using this number of years. So it's nowhere near gone in terms of time, only mass.
