The \starttypescriptcollection command is only relevant if
\preloadtypescripts is given. If that is not the case, you can
forget about it immediately. (and in the other case it is still 
undocumented, but it should not matter)

You found a bug in the manual, I have corrected the table and uploaded
a new version. Please let me know if it makes more sense now.

The top-level typescripts provided by Hans are only examples. The
typeface buildingblocks (from the tables in co-fonts.pdf) are all
there, but the combination of those into typescripts (as in the top
of type-otf and type-one) is generally left to the user.
