That's not correct. The multicoating serves to minimise surface reflection, which in turn reduces flare and ghosting. A multicoated front lens element means nothing when there's another piece of glass in front of it.

Additionally, the better quality filter multicoatings are scratch-resistant and water and dirt repellent.
