You can't evaluate kickers by percentage of makes in the same way you can't evaluate a short stop on errors when both are in large part determined by range. Guys with larger ranges will also likely have more errors.
Graves was 3-5 from 40+ in 2015 but if they are attempting an average amount and not just a few to skew the stats, then percentage made is absolutely a good stat. How are you disqualifying short FG by putting more emphasis on range? Who was it? Westerfield in 2000 who missed like half of 30-39 traders? But that doesn't count as much because they are shorter?
