No. The variance of your estimate of your win rate decreases. Your bankroll variance increases. Your win rate variance stays the same.

Is it really? It would be nice to think so but there is no reason to believe it is. Thinking about what just one hand could contain could show why this is wrong. And why thinking of win rates = skill, which is hugely prevalent on 2+2 is also very wrong.
