That is not true.

Proposed change:

"Company size is still limited to seven characters outside Darkhaven."
We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.

This all correct, but the CRF isn't changing the rule. It's just a response to a question of whether The Ride Together lets you play all 9 Ringwraiths. And the ruling mentions the rule in question.

A company's maximum size of seven while not at a darkhaven would prevent this, at least if they tried to move.
MELE Rules, Section 5, COMPANIES wrote:Normally, a company is limited to a size of seven, but a company at a Haven site may be of any size.
For these purposes, an ally does not count as a character. The size of a company is determined for each
company at the beginning of the movement/hazard phase (e.g., it remains fixed even if a character leaves
the company).
So there's no need for this proposal.
