Partially because for several years players have been able to glam different rings on different hands. It would suck to have this option removed. This would cause a lot of backlash. Although SE could continue to give us two finger glam slots...but that would be extra development on top of changing how ring combat stats work...

...honestly this is a lot of needless development just so someone can have matching tome rings. It would be easier to just remove the unique tag from tome rings. Or OP could stop being so obsessive about having two ilvl 400 tome rings. Of all the little tweaks the game needs this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down the list.

I'm ok with this option as well

I'm here to request the removal of the Unique tag outright for gear you can buy from vendors. I understand the logic behind Unique-locking instance drops, but if it's something you can buy for tomes? It feels like a foolproof mechanism that in the long run hurts players more.
To begin with, they can pop up a message saying you already own the item if it bothers them so much. Second, it's not like people can't accidentally rebuy items already, if the first copy is with their retainer or in their saddlebag. Ultimately people need to be smart about their purchases and item management.

The benefits from it would be amazing though. For starters, obviously, it will solve the problem this thread brought up. Second, it will help somewhat with min-maxing if a basic piece of gear is good for two jobs, but the melding is different. And for the truly pedantic, it'll give another means to micro-manage glamours - two pieces of gear with the same ilvl and same melds, different looks.
