Am I the only one who never adds 252 EVs? All the competitive aspects in-game autolevel you to 50 and at level 50 each stat has a max where EVs no longer increase them. 252 is far past that cap even with a +nature and the extras end up getting wasted

I'll often put some in the defenses, even if it means I won't hit as hard. But if the Pokémon has paper thin defenses to begin with, I'd rather it hit hard and fast rather than waste EVs into defenses they'll never (really) get to use.

Since when don't EVs count at level 50? I did not know this.

252 is not divisible by 8. For the same reason that EVs above 252 do not yield stat increases at Lvl 100, EVs above 248 do not yield stat increases at lvl 50.

Interesting. I never knew this. So assuming all competitive battles are held at level 50 there really is no point in maxing out in any single stat?

You can, just not through super training.

No, even the normal training way. It won't go above 252 anymore

Max EVs for a given stat is 255.
4 EVs = +1 in this stat.
252/4=63

Actually it is capped at 252 regardless of what you do, so no need to carefully count it up to 252 anymore.

Maybe I've missed the topic of this thread? Doesn't OP mean that even if you fully trained a Pokemon with 252 EVs in a particular stat it won't make any difference at level 50 because there's a cap which 252 EVs (i.e. 63 points) would go over?
