You're almost correct in your theory. The difference in the resistance between those two cables would not be seen unless you stretched them over a very long distance, like 100 + feet. However, current is carried around the outer edge of each individual strand of copper wire inside that cable. The 1/0 has many more individual wires than the AWG 4 wire. AWG 4 = less current carrying capability than the AWG 1/0. I'm an aircraft electrician.
