I agree. Check Team Update 3 on Rule SC8:
"The height of the tallest stack located in the scoring zone (the “multiplier stack”), measured in whole Stack Height Units (as defined in SC9) is subtracted from the total number of containers to establish the “base score.” Containers in additional stacks of the same height will be scored normally;"

I interpret that to say it doesn't matter how many containers (or opposing robots) support the top container of a stack, it's "The height", not the number of containers, which determines the multiple and the number subtracted from the total container count.
