It's kind of a funny crank position, Napoleon Did some kind of hare-brain economic reforms to rescue the French economy and alt-hiatory nerds like to think capitalism as we understand it would not have emerged from a Europe dominated by Napoleon's economic system. I don't think there's really anything concrete to support this and alt-history is pretty woo anyways.
