No, I agree that what the Crowns and the Rings are doing isn't technically a cure. What I'm saying is, assuming the fear of the Curse all stems from the idea that all Undead will one day go Hollow, then a cure wouldn't actually be necessary at all. If no Undead ever went Hollow, there wouldn't be any fear of the Curse at all.

Now keeping that concept in mind, that would means that the entire plot of Dark Souls (which is driven on the fear of the Curse), could be resolved by mass production of the Rings of Life Protection. It's not even like the Rings are difficult to make. They were created by a group of students in Lindelt. That's why I believe the developers that implemented the rings weren't considering what would be feasible to the lore of Dark Souls.
