I don't understand where that arithmetic comes from.
Basic config space [0-255] and extended config space [256-4095] are laid out completely differently, and they have separate capability chains. In theory one could have extended capabilities in basic config space, but since the root of that chain is at 0x100, you'd have to have extended config space available anyway in order to see it.
