The ring works quite well as the balance board successor. It seems to me that the ring not only helps correcting the user's posture but adds the strength function. In comparison to the balance board, it loses the weight scale.

The balance board still could be added as an extra for those who wanted to buy or for those who already own one and wants to plug.

There are alot of Wii Fit activities that would be either either awkward or impossible with the Ring-con/leg strap combo.  The juggling minigame, soccer heading, hula hoop, and rhythm boxing just to name a few.  For any of these to work, the leg strap would have to function as the balance board, which I don't think it can, and you'd need two joycons.  

You're right in terms of specific exercises and activites, but the ring brings new exercises and activities that covers the same muscles that the board was covering. After the ring, the board can be used as an add-on for a few exercises. That's why I the ring can be seen as a board successor. It doesn't emulate the same exercises, but it covers many bases to the point that the board isn't a requirement to call this new version a Fit successor.
