EVE Vanguard is interesting project but it should not too much overflow into mainline EVE Online. With mechanics of current game you can either play one or other and having flux of players leaving EVE Online towards Vanguard is probably not what aliances want.
There is more fun with Vanguard to connect to EVE Online universe via rewards of LP, faction warfare, triglavian / deathless invasion counters or supports and generaly influencing the NPC part of gameplay rather than player owned.
As CSM id like to work on improving the Vanguard to be more rewarding towards general EVE as it is a side project. General tweaks quality of life changes surely can be adressed.
