The relevant URL for a 4Ti manual (one volume, including both the basic
instructions and the creative bits) is
http://www.star.ucl.ac.uk/~rwesson/esif/om-sif/bodygroup/om4ti.htm
BUT you have the manuals anyway! Take a look at the Q&A on page 125 of
the above referenced manual, or pages 39, 49, 50 of the "Creative
Photography" manual you have.
Your logic looks right. As does your preference not to overcook your
OM...

Can you or anyone give me a reference for this manual? All I got was the
instruction and "Creative Photography" booklets (and felt lucky to get
those). The latter had straightforward instructions for non-T/F flashes,
which seemed to just assume manual mode.
Things did seem to work once I twigged that light had been
"insufficient".
*If* I can establish that I'm not going to fry the 4T I will experiment
to establish this. Logically, as long as the camera is willing to
trigger the flash it seems the shutter should close when enough light
has come in no matter what the mode (obviously not fast enough to
prevent over-exposure from the flash).
Enough of this for the moment - the trees are encrusted with snow and
the light is beautiful.
