If you use anything other than the Omnium ring, you have to replace the double chainring nut with a "single" chainring nut.
The knurled nuts are really nice. Dealing with both nuts and bolts every time you change rings is hard, and I've seen a lot of people lose various bolts or nuts in the in-field grass, so the less loose parts to deal with, the better.
