It will give additional public IPs from ISPs. If I also plug in a multi-wan router and link aggregation, etc. Would I get additional data?

My ISP (Ziply) allows for 2 DHCP leases at a time at the ONT, this is extremely useful when swapping out a router. I ran two routers for a while without issues. They do this on purpose but they still control the bandwidth allocation at the ONT and I don’t get twice the speed by using 2 routers.
