Then you might as well buy SPY or whatever? No?

SPY and MDY are comparable to the Vanguard Index funds, but Vanguard also has various managed stock and bond funds for those who want such products.

For example, they have a pretty good inflation-protected bond fund (VIPSX). I opted to buy these bonds directly though, to avoid paying their annual operating fee of 0.25%.

I have even less clue about US closed end funds.

Have you looked at IShares? They have over 70 different index funds that trade like stocks... ishares.com
