Cite please.
Previous explanations of Oyster capping here and elsewhere showed this
working as would be expected, with no cases where using two PAYG Oyster
cards would give a lower cost.

Clearly TfL have to strike a balance between providing technically
accurate information about how Oyster PAYG actually works and an
easily digestible message for the majority of users. Perhaps the
balance is too far towards simplification at the moment? The Oyster
card charges single fares and caps in real time during entry and exit
transactions.
