START PRE-DEPARTURE
Name 1 2 3 4 PL Colony

START PRODUCTION
PRODUCTION PL Homeworld
Build TR5 Colonizer
Develop PL Colony, TR5 Colonizer
END
I'm operating under the assumption that this will work (that things are processed in order, rather than all at once).
YES, your assumptions are correct.

Am I incorrect about how much stuff I can fit on a TRx or is the Game Manual cheating when it issues these commands?
Your understanding is correct, each of these takes 1 cargo space. It seems that Game Manual and examples are not checking that while illustrating other topics.
