Why are people complaining? They already removed Belts!

Perhaps because a single step in a good direction --let alone a small, bandaid step-- doesn't necessarily mark a point at which no further improvements would be worthwhile?

In some cases, yes, the costs of such a change would exceed the benefits provided by the diminished returns of sequential like changes and so the road ends. But this is probably not one of those times.

Also, this and the removal of belts address different concerns. Removing belts, if not for increased cost elsewhere, could actually decrease the time it takes to gear up one's main job. And its main rationale was that belts had no appearance anyways despite taking up an equal amount of item, and therefore database, space.
None of that is true for rings. Removing the restrictions surrounding rings solely decreases the added investment required to play alts.
