The issues are:

 - the goal of killing /etc/rc.d symlink is unclear, and at a first glance
   it looks like a minor cleanup which just takes risk to break stuff for
   no good reasons. The ultimate goal here is rather to get rid of the
   sysv init scripts instead.

 - the main justification of your change is "/etc/rc.d was defined by RH".
   This doesn't seem correct since this path is part of the LSB specficiations.

So currently your change and its justification looks unneeded and incorrect.
