From what I've heard, it's the villain who has the most influence over a long-running series. Just like Big Bad, the villain has to have a recurring presence.

Vector only appears in one movie, and his actions largely only affect the plot of that one movie. Gru getting the girls was done in response to Vector, but that wasn't an intentional part of Vector's plan and is unrelated to his schemes. Vader is the Heavy of the Star Wars trilogy because he is the most recurring and prominent threat throughout. Vector is only the threat for one movie.

This is based on what I have discussed with admins on the discord, so feel free to ask them. I might be getting something knowledge.
