Yes thats how D&D5 defines it in the PHB, page 114, Wizard class, The Spellbook:

"Copying a Spell into the Book. When you find a wizard spell of 1st level or higher, you can add it to your spellbook if it is of a level for which you have spell slots and if you can spare the time to decipher and copy it. [...]"

All classes get their spoils. This is one of the Wizard. Wizards can learn maximum level spells in a multiclass; something no other class can.

Of course you still can only select a pittiful small number of spells from the Wizard if you really only take one level. But you can get the higher spells that you get through multiclassing.

That's not true. See discussion here: https://rpg.stackexchange.com/quest...of-wizard-copy-any-wizard-spell-they-fin

Specificially, the PHB contains this sentence on multiclassing:

Quote
Spells Known and Prepared

You determine what spells you know and can prepare for each class individually, as if you were a single-classed member of that class.

The only thing the multiclassed Wizard can do with those extra spell slots is upcasting lower level spell.

Or if you prefer, refer to the SRD:

https://5thsrd.org/rules/multiclassing/

Which also contains the limitations above. It even has a Wizard specific example in it.
