Assuming that there is a boost of XP when leveling in a squad it's still not as effective because the XP will at least be split two ways (if not more) and at that point it's better to just go and level on your own.
Suppose one person can kill X amount of ai in a given amount of time. Does it not follow that two people should be able to kill 2X ai in the same time frame? Factoring in synergy, I would argue that its more like 2.5X or 3.5X, but I digress. If two people together can kill 2X ai, the xp boost makes this strategy more profitable. The limiting factor is, and always has been, how fast you can find the AI to kill, which usually isn't a problem until you add a third or fourth person. At that point... see Clam's gauntlet suggestion
