Harry will already lose a finger if anyone finite’s his ring. He practiced with the marshmallow because the rapid expansion of the rock would tear off his finger.
Ringmione isn’t much more of a personal risk to him.

He’d sustained that Transfiguration for seventeen days, and would now need to start over.

This implies to me that that his finger would’ve gotten wrecked if that was a rock. Remember, finite on the rock blew out both the front and back of the troll’s head.

Cannon!harry does NOT like skele grow. I don’t expect Rational!Harry would like it any more, even if he wouldn’t complain about it to anyone.
