The numbers in LAS/MCO aren’t big enough to really move the needle. LAS commuters go to SFO LAX and DEN (prob a few others) however SFO777FO has almost three times the entire size of the LAS base.
I doubt you’ll see any meaningful movement in one BES as a result of these bases, the commute will just get a little better for the ones that live there.

Since you will be starting class on Tuesday, you’ll be able to participate in the current vacancy. At the moment, there are only 20 ORD 737 FO allocated on the vacancy bid. If you haven’t been able to log into flying together before your drop, ask the BI instructors to show you the snapshot of the vacancy to get an idea of how you want to roll the dice. The first snapshot will be posted Monday.

In the airline industry, outstation bases typically pay more due to their more efficient nature because they typically start early on day 1 and finish late on day 3 or 4. You're basically doing a hub's trip but with two extra legs. Expect to switch from AM flying to PM flying on one of the middle days of the trip.

yes, it may mean more absolute $ for a 3 or 4 day trip but $ / time away is typically worse.

Efficient pay wise majority of time. Those two extra legs do add up.
