No, because as the first comment pointed out, the multiplier is more valuable is the market size is larger. A developer starting their own company is multiplying a small amount, if anything. They would be better served working for a large company that can benefit more from the multiplying. Even if you only receive a fraction of the benefit you bring, you will still earn more than you would on your own.
