Why are those three clearly worse?  Who says that the severity of an
aveirah is what should determine whether it's nidche by pikuach nefesh? >>>

Just a note that pikuach nefesh overrides shabbat. However, pikuach nefesh
does not override stealing if one cannot pay back.
So we see that what overrides includes other factors and not just severity
as stealing is certainly not that stringent. In fact pikuach nefesh does not
always override any mitzvot bein adam lechavero

We have "vechai behem" which says that pikuach nefesh overrides mitzvot
between man and G-d but doesnt apply always to things that affect other
human beings
