Are people really going to riot over Rocket Town? Do people even remember the town itself outside of the actual rocket and Cid’s House?

Every one of those locations, if included, will change. We know this because they already heavily changed Midgar to suit the new gameplay. Look at how very different the Shinra Building was from the original as an example. The key thing is that it kept the feel.

Nobody will riot with changes though imho. And if they do, well, who cares? They already gave Square their money and will continue to give them their money.
