Switching weights would absolutely make builds OP. And there is also nothing stopping a stamina character wearing all light.

True but that point you would be using Magicka and not Stanima because you have no Stamina resources.
Like if I am doing a Hybrid build of a Stam/Mag Necromancer and wanna use gear but its all light gear. I would only use Magicka because all of my Stamina drains so fast.
Also won't make builds OP due to already using Jewelry/weapons.

All Stamina sets either have boring or no visual effects while Light and even Heavy sets have more better visuals.
I get bored of the same class and weapon skills but being unable to actually use Sets just for visuals is plain sad.

It absolutely will make them OP, for the very fact that you are complaining: the ability to effectively use two off weight sets together on any build.
If you want to run MD or light body, you can only run 1 heavy set on your jewelry. With weight change, you could wear two heavy sets and get the light or medium benefits. Which would absolutely make potential set combinations incredibly overpowered, since sets are balanced with their weights in mind. That is a part of the balancing process, and removing the weight requirement throws the balance completely out the window. Which would force them to re-balance the sets with that in mind, which would lead to significant nerfs of sets that are functioning just fine right now in their siloed usage.

Trust me. For pvp this is a must. If they did was you propose pvp would disappear.

If that's the case then I am gonna be sad and bored. I only care about visuals and lot of the set visuals are awesome but can't use the combos I like due to not working right with my character.
Like if I want to use Dark Convergence and Whorl of the Depths then I have to be a Magicka user since non help Stamina users with resource or increase stamina but mainly since its Light armor it won't activate the Medium armor perks.
This is the main reason I was a Magicka user is because lot of the nice visuals in gear are in Light but when I try Medium there is only few nice ones. All there is for Medium is mostly Poison while Light and Heavy has all the good visuals.

Have a look at azureblight for a good medium armour set visuals wise or aegis caller. Darloc Brae has sparkles when you get the 5 piece bonus
