I have and I’m currently at an early stage startup. It’s an insane amount of work. I think most people could become proficient at the various roles, but they simply don’t have the time to actually do all of the roles. That’s ultimately the challenge- time to do everything. Starting a business either requires having a good partner or a small enough market to manage everything yourself. For most people, joining an early stage company will be a better trade off. The team will be established, but you’ll still have a bunch of freedom to take care of the thing you want.
