If the setter has to move much to set, the team is called out of system. For example, when the setter is pulled off the net to behind the 3m line to make the set the team is out of system. Two bad things have basically happened: (1) setting with accuracy is now more difficult (the angles, distances, and timing are all worse), and (2) the setter loses offensive options. Typically the setter loses at least the middle attacks. It's hard to set the middle attacker if the middle is like three meters in front of the setter. Now it's much easier for the defensive team to make a good blocking read and get at least a double block up.
