I've never understood this.
All (AFAIK) rear-routed Ibanez RG Prestige guitars have pickups directly mounted to the wood.
Many Ibanez 6-string S series Prestige guitars use those ugly af pickup mounting rings. However, the 7 strings do not. Sometimes, the 6 strings will or will not have them.
What is the deal with this? One of things that has stopped me from buying a 6 string S Prestige is the presence of those pickup rings. I'm not seeing a reason that the RG Prestiges can do away with them but the S guitars can't.
