but Vegeta takes the backseat to Nappa’s violent mayhem. Nappa’s extreme actions, lofty kill count, and burly physique give the implication that he’s the stronger of the two Saiyans.

Vegeta, Nappa, and Raditz are canon Saiyans that survived Planet Vegeta's destruction due to luck and stubbornness. Broly and Paragus survived in different ways in their canon and non-canon versions.

Doubly so if they are put in a situation where they are forced to work alongside them. Vegeta killing Nappa is the best example of this, as it shows that Vegeta initially cares little for those ...

Vegeta, originally a villain, is younger than Goku but older than other villains at 29 years old. Nappa, a short-lived villain, is the oldest Saiyan in the series at around 50 years old.
