I can attach a cross-section of BMD-1, which shows three seats behind a turret and two beside a driver (operating machine guns). So it seems, that Russian BMD section in reality has only 5 men - and BTR-D in that case carries two sections (10 men).

Carry capacity is somewhat an abstract affair. For example in real life you could split an infantry squad between two armored Humwees, in the game it is not possible.
