"The presence of rings is not an observation..."

Actually, it is, just not an optical picture. Measurements made with instruments other than cameras make perfectly good observations, and this is the standard terminology used in the field. Their reasoning for making the claim is based on what has been observed in drop outs of energetic electron intensities due to the rings in all the outer planets. It's a safe bet that if they ever get back there with cameras there will be pictures.
