From what I understand the capacity is determined by the max capacity listed by the host divided by the team capacity.

Regardless as to how it is determined you should not plan to bring more than you are allowed because that might mean that another team does not have enough room to fit despite only bringing the allowed amount. When you take up more than your allotted share you do so by "stealing" part of another teams allotted share.
