I'm sure that there will be studies on "given a ship with 1,000,000 ton
capacity, how much should be devoted to colonists and how much to gear?"
There's no particular reason it should be "every colonist gets one
suitcase of gear".

And bear in mind that colonies won't necessarily be started just for the
sake of founding a colony. It's at least as likely that they'll be put
in place to exploit a resource, eg a mining camp, and the "self
sustaining" part will grow up around it.
