I have a different take on this. The key thing to remember is that the break-even point for stolen bases to be worth it, is about 75%.

That means for any catcher with a CS rate above 25%, you don't actually want to discourage base-stealers. You want them to keep running. Therefore, high catcher arm ratings are actually counter-productive.
