Being torn on my opinion of a rule isn't an issue either. I don't have to like the rules I enforce, I only have to enforce them. With that said, I likely would have gotten this particular situation incorrect, in part because of my opinions. With that said, what are the odds anyone actually has this particular play occur.
So if you have to tell a player to take off jewelry you have unfairly affected the game. But I get where you are coming from. I do baseball and nit shit rules do not affect the fairness of a game in my neck of the woods.
