Mission Vao drop rate different?

Saw this interesting article (https://gaming-fans.com/2018/10/swgoh-corporate-myopia-darkens-revan/) and they mentioned T3-M4 had a drop rate higher than 30% while Mission Vao’s was a little lower than 33%. Usually I chaulk this up to RNG, but seeing the same rate on my farms makes me wonder if they tweaked the rates for these two.

Doubtful. But you should keep in mind while you're farming, that drop rates are universal. So if you go 5/8 on a hard node, and 1/10 on a cantina node, that's 6/18 and is 33%. They should all balance out over the long term, though.

I'd love to see his data, but I highly doubt the drop rates are different. Your rate of shard accumulation is different though - since T3 requires only 12 energy per sim vs 16 for Mission - you can do 4 sims for T3 for the same cost as 3 sims for Mission.

Because of this, Mission shards are going to drop less frequently on a "daily basis", albeit not from a "% of sims" basis.

I've been tracking Vet Chewy since I activated at 25 and thus far I'm 43/120 (35.8%). Just earlier today I ran 6/8 on a refresh but then 2/7 on the next.

It'll average out to about 33%.

It happens. I've had 0/7 or 0/8 a few times already in my VetC farm. You're just noticing it because it confirms your theory that the drop rate is lowered.
