Not sure if I udnerstood it well, but this could be a counterexample:

Beer (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q44) is a subclass of Alcoholic beverage (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q154)
Beer: 142 links
Alcoholic beverage: 73 links

Hello All,

It struck me that one interesting way to see if subclasses are useful was to test this hypothesis.

Let QID_a and QID_b be two Wikidata items.

Conjecture: if QID_b is subclass of QID_a,
then count_stelinks(QID_b) <= count_sitelinks(QID_a).

Has anyone investigated this problem, or can think of an efficient way to test it? Or can tell me why it ought not to be true?
