Not quite, depends what new Rank it could require. Not all of the Rank ups were solely Seal grinds, some had a dungeon quest attached and if they want to slow down the purchase of Housing, they could really make the new Ranks require anything they want; Go Finish the new Hunting Log, it requires S Rank Hunts now.
