If he uses canned stock or bouillon then yea it will have more salt than spaghetti.

If he just uses water then not likely.

I use low sodium chicken broth. If I had serious hypertension I'd use water.

None of the veggies, roux, cayenne or file delivers any sodium. The sausage is delivering the salt.

Spaghetti and sauce not only are high salt but raw ground meat to make meat balls has more salt than raw chicken in making gumbo. I found that out last year when I started reading the nutrition labels on raw meat.
