After making these changes I actually managed to fill first colonies (after many and many turns, but still) and redirect transports to newer colonies.
Actually I've found Pop transports fleet do not create micromanagement : build 4-5 ships, group them, give them "move to HW/Load/Move to col/Unload" repeating orders and dang, you've just established a passenger line ...
Ok, it's more difficult when you come at war
