Should TTW start in Vault 101 only?

If it wasn't for the content revolving around Ulysses, I have a feeling that it wouldn't have been necessary to put a nine-year amnesia in between the East and West coast travel.  Maybe it was just me but I didn't like suddenly having all this supposed lore about what the courier had done dumped on me at the "end" of the game.  I was like, "What?  That's not me!  Is he rambling crazy?  I didn't do that!"  



I was never terribly interested in finding Benny -- I guess the developers assumed I'd be mad with revenge, but it was a "I guess I'll get around to it if I have to."  Maybe that's strange, I don't know.  



Personally I might fiddle with my own personal game someday to try to make it start in New California, go from there to Vegas, and then to DC to hunt enclave -- who I will either want to find or kill much more so by that point.  I am personally interested in "alternate start" mods that don't force the revenge quest, but still allow for the plot involving House and the platinum chip, etc.
