you are correct with VTV. I bought my initial position in IVE simply because I had buying paralysis in August (stocks were dropping so fast that i found it impossible to buy, so i used IVE as a proxy). VTV is just an equivalent vehicle )to IVE) and i did the exchange simpoly for tax loss purposes. Eventually i will sell pieces of VTV to buy individual stocks. you are correct that VTV also contains stocks that i decided to sell, but of course my exposure is fairly small relative to owning the individual stock.
