You are absolutely correct, and here is the reason why:

-Live play: the fish play one table at a time; the sharks play one table at a time.

-Online play: the fish play 1 or 2 tables at a time; the sharks have a wall full of 2001FPs and play 8, 12, 30, 69, or more tables at a time.

The players are not tougher online per se, but you're more likely to run into the tougher players on any given table, due to the multitabling effect.

This is also why Pacific Poker is the fishiest poker site on the 'Net...no multitabling allowed there.
