We've had some success at experimenting with using all 4 rings for different circumstances
Use all 4 rings for marching, weapons hang vertically
For combat, loosen or remove thongs on lower rings to allow gladius to swing forward and horizontal for a quick draw.
For combat, set pugio at a slight angle, top fwd, to facilitate cross body draw. BTW, learned the benefits of that in SCA combat.
