Bethesda has a very specific, pop-culture vision for Fallout. It shines through perfectly in 4, 76, and the TV show. The bobbleheads, obsession with the Brotherhood and Super Mutants, and so forth make it a brand and commodity that can easily be marketed in other ways.

New Vegas cares very little about that. It's wierd, self-contained, and focuses on telling its own story, regardless of how brandified it is or isn't.

Basically, it dilutes the IP in Bethesda's eyes by making it less immediately recognizable as their vision of Fallout.
