Sure. But if you apply to a 50 people outfit, there are probably no billionaires involved. Just write the email instead of fucking over some poor IT person who just created all your accounts and now has to clean everything up again, or whoever did two hours of overtime to wrap up the actual task they didn't get around to finish due to being informed about a super critical omboarding call 30 minutes before it was supposed to happen. Employees of capitalist companies are still mostly just people suffering the same as we all.
If you applied to the likes of X, or OpenAI etc., feel free to ghost those fuckers as much as you like though. Whoever still works there probably deserves no courtesy. Should also probably do some deep reflection on the application then.
