Set Shooter
Set Shooter activation is one of the top reasons this badge is useless. There are a couple of arguments to be made for set shooter, such as players who like to shoot out of a triple threat or shooters with a low 3 point rating whose defender refuses to close out at the 3 point line. Outside of these scenarios this badge simply isn't practical.

Is Set Shooter Secretly Good?
Testing Set Shooter was actually pretty easy. Our standard jumpshooting script pump fakes before shooting for a consistent release point. This process killed enough time that set shooter simply activates using our jumper script. We ran a 200 shot sample every 10mS throughout the green window for every badge level to see how good set shooter badge really was.

Activating the badge is just not practical. Skip it.
