It'd be much more fair if the project at your job started out as a proof-of-concept that you wrote, while the other dev worked on other things.
Once your proof-of-concept grew into something management wanted, you'd probably still be writing a lot of the code, and the other developer would be contributing, but in the realm of 20% of the codebase, at least to start (and according to this article, that wouldn't change).

Maybe the results do apply to the situation you describe, I'd be curious to know that.
