Except, worthless or not (the Exia is the explicit countermeasure to other GN shield machines), Setsuna is a vital catalyst for the series. He's the one who first stands up against the Trinities in Season 1, and in Season 2 he and only he is responsible for bringing together Celestial Being again and finally grasping Aeolia's true intentions (and being the first true human Innovator). Few other fan-made characters could do half of that without being blatant ripoffs of him.
And while Saji and Louise were mostly irrelevant in first season, in season two they're both significant main characters. Not just to eachother, but in terms of plot; Ribbons chose Louise to basically be queen of the world. That's pretty important.
