A player that is highly proficient at this distance might struggle with the release and arc necessary for a 10' from the short corner, for instance. Of course if this player practiced this shorter range as much as the 20 footer he might feel more comfortable, but where does he spend most of his practice time at? Beyond the arc, and why not...it's worth 1/3 more

We're talking the mechanics of shooting, not what distance a specific player has practiced at the most.
And it is 1/2 more, not 1/3 more.
