That would be like saying that any bins in contact with the tallest stack are part of the stack because they may be keeping the stack from tipping over and therefore are also discounted.

If removing one bin causes the pyramid to collapse , then yes they should all be discounted. If they are separate stacks in a pyramid shape then no, only the highest stack would be discounted. Again the test, if you remove a bin, even if it is touching other bins, and the pyramid does not fall then those bins are not part of the multiplier stack.
Anyone who has purchased the bins knows by now that a pyramid shape of alternating bins is not all that stable since the construction can not take advantage of the nesting feature of the bin tops and bottoms.
