Sure, though that only starts after pre-k and k, which tends to be much cheaper.

Anyway, if you compare starting a family with ~1M in the bank and 1 income at 50k vs. dual income 220k in the valley and no savings outside of home equity there are benefits on both sides.

> starting a family with ~1M in the bank

This is an outlier and, in my opinion, not representative of any useful demographic for this discussion. The idea that you bank $100k a year (let's even through in compounding) is certainly feasible, but not common.
