Defeat of Soviet Union that was mainly caused by its failed economy is one thing and the defeat in Vietnam is another thing. It's a weird logic to say US defeat in Vietnam actually greatly helped to defeat Soviet Union.
Again, primary strategic goal was to stop the spread of communism ideology. It was ultimately defeated, and Vietnam is now a close strategic ally. The US attained its goal in the end. Vietnam is no longer an adversary. Strategic goals were met, but it took decades.
