As per http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php?topic=8495.msg105591#msg105591 troop bays are said to follow another rule, but I couldn't find the follow up post regarding troops bays, so I'm not sure if this is intended behaviour.
They do not require cargo shuttles, but will work very slowly without them. I believe this mechanic exists to allow things like loading a boarding party after they have captured a ship, but can also be used for small marine detachments that take control of enemy sensor outposts and the like when there is no opposition but you don't want to transport a whole brigade all the way out there.
