Now, if you have one setting 96 - 100 and one setting 88 - 96 it gets tricky. I will usually lower my standards for the better setter and not call an illegal contact until she sets a 93 or 94. Conversely, I will call a little tighter on the other setter and maybe call anything below a 90.

This is kinda what im referring to. Regardless of the skills of the setter, there is still that line between good sets and bad sets There are no questionable sets. Its either good or bad. Now with your decription, it still hurts the team with a the setter who sets well because the sets that he/she will get called on (93 or 94) would be considered a good set if the other setter was the one setting.

Its kinda like giving a test. 100 questions. Just because one kid is dumber than the other doesnt mean you lower the scale for him. The scale is set and its either pass or fail. With the # scale you given as guidlines to maintain equity with the set calling acctually makes it much more clear that the team with the less skilled setter gets an advantage.

Im not trying to rip on you at all. Dont get me wrong. Its just that its still is not fair with that reasoning.
