Under-starred characters viability

I keep seeing people talk about how some characters are still viable even at 3 stars (other than things like raids and TB where 7* are required), which makes me wonder: is there any way to have an idea if a character would still work alright when not 7* before unlocking them? From what I can tell, I assume it's based on whether or not their utility relies on their level to be strong? Baze's autotaunt/dispel, Thrawn Fracture, Nihilus Annihilate, etc. Based on that, I assume R2 and BB8 would be serviceable even just unlocked at 5* (assuming gear and levels are the same as 7*)? Are there any other factors that play into it? Would Shoretrooper just be too squishy at 3*? What about 4* Rex or Ackbar leads?
