I am well aware of the Rivet City beggar, and I believe there are a couple more in the wastes. The Megaton beggar however is more convenient for the purpose of karma flipping. He is after all a minute from your front door. So it mitigates inventory issues, and time issues. Basically on the whole it can save someone ten minutes for doing the mission last. Hell there are usually a few choice targets right outside Megaton. No walking just blast the robot, blast the caravan, and blast the beggar. So it is a real time saver.

You can use Rivet City if you like it is just going to take you longer to do it all three times. Especially if you do not estimate how much water you need, and are a lightweight. You know trips back for more water, or having to go back for equipment. The enemies outside Rivet are now more dangerous with this content. There are a couple Super Mutant Overlords outside the city.

Overall its harder to screw up Megaton. About the robot I have no idea. I really had no need. My house is a stockpile of hundreds of weapons, misc items, aid items, and armor. The only thing my character needs is stimpacks. So I didn't go looking for handouts not that the settlers in Megaton do not give me presents every time I open the door.
