I love my D-rings (and use them), but the pockets are a waste of fabric on my Ranger. I got my 14yr. old a Poseidon W50 and love the setup: No pockets, continuous webbing (shoulders only. the waist is mounted to the backplate as is the crotch strap/scooter ring), four D-rings attached with stainless lock screws. It's not techie minimalist, but it's great for him and certainly superior to my Ranger. He's added four weight pockets (two on the waist, two for trim on the lower tank band.). His octo uses a clip on the right shoulder. His backup light is on the left (clipped to a retractor and bungied so it doesn't dangle.). His console clips to the left side, but I notice he tucks it under his shoulder strap.
I like it that the rig has rows of stainless grommets so that he can add or remove pockets and d-rings and can locate them almost anywhere he wants.
His rig is about right for what he needs.
