it appears the a330neo models are larger seating capacity than the a350 models (-900) <the -1000 model seating appears smaller compared to actual>.
there is an online article (https://simpleflying.com/airbus-a350-vs-a330neo/) taken from airbus information that states the larger and wider a350 seats more than the a330neo, however, it appears in the sim that isnot the case. a separate article (https://simpleflying.com/boeing-787-vs-the-airbus-a350/) compares the a35k vs b78x seating capacity.
is there a way to have this corrected?
Any reference from manufacturer's docs for these? (to make the updating quicker for me; max certified pax capacity)

It is not only the pax capacity but also MTOW, MZFW, OEW and range that are off with the A350:
A350-900:
- MTOW : 283t
- MZFW : 195.7t
- OEW : ~135t
- design range : 8300nm
- max fuel 166488l
That gives it a max payload around 61t
A350-1000:
- MTOW : 322t
- MZFW : 223t
- OEW : ~147t
- design range : 8900nm
- max fuel : 164000l
That gives it a max payload around 76t
