Fixing someone's daddy issues has no effect on whether or not they're at the right place at the right time.

Actually I specified them as separate things for a reason.. Think about real life - if your mind is occupied by personal issues, then you cannot focus at work. That's basically what happens here - theirs minds aren't immediately focused on the mission.

''How does Legion get distracted? Why would Zaeed, who's lived with this for decades?''

Actually these are both explained in game. Legion now has the resources and ability to strike at the heretics as its mission to locate Shepard is complete. And Zaeed has just received his first solid lead on Vido's whereabouts.
