There are more MLS listings than there are VLS listings, but they tend to take longer to sell and often have price reductions before they go into pending status.
Totally anecdotal, but I've seen two homes in my area that were initially listed with MLS, that remained unsold for many months. Both of them eventually switched to VLS, and the properties sold after only a couple-three months once Properties of The Villages re-listed under their own company.

I know a number of villages homes that were listed over comp price and not sold by the
the Villages. MLS listed them at fair market value and sold them. The villages is happy to list your house higher than the comps. It allows them to compare the house to a New Villages property. they guide the buyers to new homes.
