MM's can naked short if needed to make a market... so probably doesnt really do much at all.
But just my opinion

mm's have nothingto do with it. The broker you are using can lend your shares to another client to be shorted (sold) and it doesn't matter if you have a sell set or not. How you stop them from lending them is to call and tell them you do not want your shares to be available for shorting.
The "set a high limit sell" thing is a myth. Call your brokerage and ask them.
