I think it’s a little early to come to a conclusion one way or the other, as I don’t think the analysis has been done yet. It is a phenomenon that is well known in virology, so I don’t see it being any different with Covid than it is with any other virus.
Studies have indicated that there is no significant difference in viral load between vaccinated and unvaccinated Covid patients.

Your last line is correct, if you cut the study off 24-36 hours after infection. After that, the delta in viral load is huge, with the vaccinated individual holding a much lower viral load of course. Therefore much lower chance of spread or serious illness. As is borne out in all the numbers.
