FWIW, I’ve used “inappropriate” middle cogs with no outer-face serrations as first-place cogs many times, and I’ve never had a lock ring come loose. There is little, if any circular input by the driving forces on the lockring (the splines prevent that) and if you tighten it well vibration should not be a problem.
