It is fairly clear that is it not a significant factor, even before omicron. I don't know how these claims that lack a solid scientific basis still continue. You cannot attribute a capability to a vaccine that has not been confirmed through high quality evidence.

There are a number of studies both identifying a mechanism for covid to have reduced spread due to vaccine and verifying that this occurs empirically. The difference is decreased with newer variants but:

1. Hybrid immunity is even stronger at reducing spread and only possible with prior vaccination

2. There is still non-negligible reduced spread which can be impactful.

it's not clear at all. Where I live, unvaccinated people are >7x likely to test positive.
