no, the intended use was as it's labeled: accessory lamps, meaning the radio and heat lights will be fused so that they don't blow all the dash lights if they screw up [unlikely] .... you've misinterpreted where the instructions say to put the gray wire, it is the power supply for the other 2 and there will be a fuse between them - as I said, any wire from a + supply is the single connector, any wire to a load is the opposite side of the fuse, multiple terminals or not
the later fuse block is a different arrangement, not "5 tabs" but one and the 4 others the fuse holder, I think you'd find there are connections across the back not seen on the front that power others to the right .... and maybe the gray wire isn't used later, the radio and heater lights can connect direct to the light sw, but fused seperate on yours I'd go with about 3amp, which is what that short fuse on the sw is
also note on the last pic of yous, the unused red wire is hooked where it can supply 2 unlabeled fuses, one right that can supply 2 items, and one left that can supply one item, that could be used to supply additional things later
