Perhaps it does. (And it’s always interesting to ask Libertarians how they view Rawls’ veil of uncertainty when thinking about their system – or my personal favourite, to ask them about transaction costs.)

But it might not show this – it might be that Libertarians have a sincere and genuine moral belief in self-autonomy as a good thing in itself.
