This has become jousting with windmills, and I suspect you did not really read what I wrote; but for you and
@RockAndSage as he liked the quoted post, I will try to lay it out very simply.
I only mount rings on rails (pic or integrated dovetail).
--> I like to move scopes between rifles
--> Lapping means the rings must stay with the rail/action
--> This means to swap scopes between rifles I must pull the scope from the rings, then remount it in new rings.
--> Mounting a scope in rings is more time consuming than simply pulling the rings from the rail.
--> Ergo I prefer rings to stay with a scope and not with a given rail/action
