According to the answer this would mean that on 100 play VP if you make an error on the first hand you would compound that by 100x. Am I wrong?

If there's any compounding, it would be a consequence of wagering
more on the play and not related to the number of lines being played.
There's no impact if the wagers in each case (multiline vs single) is
identical.

In an example of playing $.01 100-play vs $1 single-line play, the
impact of an error is exactly the same. Yes, 100 lines multiplies the
impact over a single line by 100, but the value of that single line is
1/100 of the $1 case.
