It's unfortunate that we try to measure this kind of thing on a single dimension. There's certainly a type of developer/mentor who does do a good job of setting helpful directions in a large-team setting. At the other extreme, there are people who don't necessarily thrive in a "team setting" at all, but on the other hand can build big things (or, better yet, small things than solve big problems) remarkably quickly. Both "high multiples", but quite different skills. (There does seem to have been a fair amount of devaluation of solo-working over the last few years, which perhaps leads to less appreciation of the second kind of high-multiple than was once the case).
