Fact one: the Nation of Vagan: it has been repeatedly exposed in the show that Vagans see themselves as a Nation, defined by being abandoned to die on Mars by the Federation, with its own particular culture and mindset. As a consequence, to them Earthners are Aliens, and they have no desire to covertly reintegrate the Earth Sphere.
Fact two: the population of Vagan: it numbers in millions, the equivalent of several if not many colonies of the Earth Sphere. Notice that each Vagan colony would be much more densely populated from the way they have been depicted.
Fact three: large covert operations are limited to space, as shown by the whole Downes operation, infiltrating the atmosphere in numbers is a pretty big deal.
Fact four: Even if we assume the whole thing was logistically possible to do in secrecy, to move a fixed, conservatively sized Vagan population over the course of 200 years (which is absolutely ridiculous by the way), would imply a flow of about 1000 people per day. So you'd have an equivalent of totally unknow strangers showing up at the colonies spaceports every day...
Fact five: Vagan has superior military technology, and Might is Right, thus the Vagan's leader cannot make light of his people suffering and reasonably ask them to become Mexican illegal immigrants instead of The Chosen People subjugating the Promised Land.
