1. The "set" directive is an instruction of the "rewrite" module.
If you learn how it works, you will realize that "set" on the
"http" level has no sense.

Please, take a look at the "rewrite" module documentation:
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html

2. There's no problem in using variables defined by a "set" directive
in "map" or "log_format" directives. That's already allowed.
