I imagine given the choice most people would prefer to get a tube direct
into central london than have to get a mainline train and change at
victoria or waterloo. Imagine you're standing at Vauxhall and want to get
to the west end - do you hop on a victoria line to oxford circus or wait
20 mins for a mainline train to go a mile to victoria then get on it?
Its a no brainer.

Where does that 20 minutes come from (and, come to think of it, where
does the train from vauxhall to victoria come from as well)?

Battersea Park has ten trains an hour to Victoria, off-peak, and
Queenstown Road has eight an hour to Waterloo off-peak. Vauxhall has
*26* trains per hour to Waterloo, off-peak.
