I think badges are a little flawed, someone could hustle one and now the issuer is associated with that person for life :)

Not true. You can recall/withdraw them. Keep in mind we’ve only seen one single implementation so far.
Issuer can withdraw? Couldn’t find anything besides:
“Awarded badges are immutable and non-transferrable.”
Wouldn’t withdrawal by the issuer make them mutable? Badge definitions can be updated too, so I don’t know exactly what to make out of them.
