I can confirm that the unlocked slot does indeed get 10 lots. I use my alt to place harvestors for my small mining buisness.
I think the pre-jedi revamp extra characters didn't get lots, way back when. That might be what you are remembering.

Pre-pub 9 and post Pub-10 jedi all get 10 lots, can set houses, factories and harvesters.
I simply contract out for my harvesting. I monitor the spawns personally (and check/update swgcraft) and email to my hunters/harvesters when I find something that I desire. I pay a flat 3cpu for anything that can be machine harvested and I find that I have little trouble getting 1-4million units of any resource that I want.
It takes a little time to build a list of reliable harvesters, but it can certainly be done. The same goes for hunted resources (though you have to pay more than 3cpu for those)...

This seems like a full time job to manage all these lots efficiently...

Yep, which is why being a crafter tends to be a lot of work.
