Mr House: The guy rules as a brutal dictator over Vegas where you do as he wants or you die and he only cares about his own interests. Maybe Lanius can keep it together through fear alone, but the moment he shows weakness and achieves anything short of total victory his entire reputation will begin to fall apart and with it The Legion too, either way it's just not sustainable and it's pretty morally ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up too. He thinks he's emulating the Roman Empire but he misses the entire point of what made the Roman Empire successful, the Roman Empire was built off the back of hundreds of years of culture and traditions from under the Roman Republic and it was under the Republic that most of the actual expansion took place too. The Legion: C'mon, a bunch of warmongering slavers? The Legion is going to fall apart not long after Caesars death anyway since he hasn't built it to be sustainable. Besides Yesman is the failsafe ending for when you pissed off all the legitimate factions, it's literally just the "you screwed everything up but we'll let you finish the game anyway" ending so I wouldn't expect it to be a good one.
Westside is a pretty unique situation and not exactly an example of good morals. The Fiends more or less leave it alone because Motor Runner orders them to as he doesn't want to piss of the Khans who have good ties with it (so ties with a literal raider gang, off to a good start), and they're only able to grow enough food because they quite literally steal water from others and murder those who try to investigate the theft. Now I know one guy likes to point to Westside and go 'bUt iT'S a SuCceSsFuL aNArChISt cOMmuNe', but Westside is a really bad example as it's only able to do what it does because the people in it do bad things/ ally with bad people. All of this is either evidenced directly from the endslides or the natural implications/ conclusions of said endslides, the Yesman ending is not the headcanon ending no matter how much people wish it was. The Strip remains in status quo, but outside of that things just get worse, Vegas at large we're told get 'more unstable and violent than ever', and The Fiends are allowed to overrun Outer Vegas without intervention (It's only the House ending where the Securitrons are sent to wipe them out, in the Yesman one they're left to ravage the area), and if raiders are allowed to flourish right on the doorstep of Vegas then the rest of the wasteland isn't going to be getting any help either and the Mojave will turn into a hellhole and the perfect breeding ground for raider not dissimilar to Fallout 3 or 4's wastelands where the strong prey upon the weak. Yesman: It plunges the Mojave into pure anarchy as we see by the endslides, and in a bad way too. The NCR is the only faction that leads to an actual good outcome tbh.
