No, I think it's correct. From Wikipedia [0]:

SDSC: 1 MiB to 2 GiB

SDHC: 2 GiB to 32 GiB

SDXC: 32 GiB to 2 TiB

SDUC: 2 TiB to 128 TiB

Yes, all four of those as "micro" go into the same "slot".

My point is that a "400 GB" card and a 512 GB card both are SDXC cards...

But the reference is to a slot and not a card.

So it's a microSDXC slot that doesn't support all microSDXC cards. Q.E.D.
