Sure others would like to see the skin made available again, but the main reason why Riot is against bringing back limited edition skins is because it lessens the value of that skin for people who already owned it. It makes the skin less rare and reduces the overall value and novelty of the skin. Riot is usually very cautious about bringing back limited edition content, regardless of how badly the community wants it.

Uhh, didn't they do this for a lot of seasonal skins that were advertised as limited edition? Lol.

They've only re-released limited edition skins for champions that received a gameplay or visual update (like Warwick and Ryze). Also, they re-released Championship Riven and a few of the Riot themed skins (like Riot Kayle and Riot Graves), but aside from that, I can't recall any limited edition skins that they're re-released before.

There was a huge stink on the boards for months about giving old holiday skins vintage tags since they were advertised as limited edition.

Riot did a one time rerelease of all of them, and then continued doing it due to massive community support. As I recall, anyways.

They have not actually re-released the limited skins for Warwick or Ryze: Grey Warwick, Urfwick and Young Ryze have yet to be seen again.

Riot skins were never Limited. Only Riot Squad Singed is limited https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752944-Guide-to-Legacy-and-Limited-Skins

For all their other limited skins that have been re-released and are now Legacy http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/store/sales/plan-vintage-limited-edition-skins

Riot isn't against that at all. They WANT their skins to be more openly available for the community in the game has grown massively since they last did a Limited skin.

They've already brought back 36 limited skins which include Championship Riven, Sports skins / Older Holiday skins. So they are working to actually make most of their Limited skins not limited. It just takes time and they think of ways to compensate those who already have them in a way they enjoy.

Sure, if they bring back King Rammus.
