I work full stack and even do dev operations and my title is not "full stack" and I believe the reason why is so HR can argue to pay me less.
Why would you think full stack developers make more money in general?
That really depends on the company. At big tech companies, it's common for the levels and salary bands to be the same for both generalists (or full stack or whatever you want to call them) and specialists.
It also changes depending on market conditions. For example, frontend engineers used to be in higher demand than backend and full-stack.
"It depends" is a good answer, and is in line with me questioning the above comment.
