It sounded extremely improbable to me, so tried googling and I wasn't able to find anything that would back up such claims. Can you provide a source for the information that MicroSD cards have more than e.g. double total physical capacity?

Not double, but having extra space than the device is rated for is listed as a wear leveling technique.
