why not use "framed" which is more common in my opinion,- " set up" suggests some positive action

спасибо за исторический экскурс. но мне вспомнился недавний фильм Who Framed Rjdger Rabbit

Actually, FRAMED and SET UP mean the same exact thing. By the way, SET UP is never positive. To be SET UP means to be made to look like you committed a crime you didn’t commit.
